Raquel sat on the couch an hour later, talking to Liam about their plans for the day. She was mid-sentence when her words just stopped.
"We should probably figure out how to..." she trailed off, staring blankly at the wall.
Liam looked up from his phone. "How to what?"
Raquel blinked several times. "I don't know. What was I saying?"
"You were talking about figuring something out."
"Right, but what was it?" She pressed her fingers to her temples. "I knew what I was going to say, and then it just disappeared."
Liam set his phone down. "You're probably just tired. We haven't been sleeping well."
"Maybe." But Raquel's voice was uncertain. She tried to remember what she had been thinking about before she spoke, but it was like reaching for smoke. The thought had been there a moment ago, clear and complete, and now it was gone.
Liam picked up his phone again and started scrolling, then stopped. "That's weird."
"What?"
