The Life Impossible

Back at the house, Grace tries dismissing Alberto’s warnings and turns on the television. However, the news report is so disturbing that she vomits. Then, she realizes that she knows the makes and models of all the cars passing the house. She goes to the fridge for a glass of juice.

Grace sips the juice and discovers how delicious it is. She’s never experienced anything so pleasurable and wonders if her sadness is over.

Grace feels moved by everything around her. She opens Alberto’s book and realizes that she can read Spanish. She looks out the window and discovers that she can also predict every car that will pass. She tries sleeping but doesn’t feel tired. She wanders the house studying the photos and discovers that she knows every story behind them. She understands Christina’s complicated familial relationships, too, and has epiphanies about love.
