Not Explaining

M;ay 17, 1983. How can I tell my Tia how I feel about Luis? At this point, it´s not just sex anymore. At first I thought it was, but now I know that it´s deeper than that. I love him. I love being near him, discovering new things about him. But my Tia has never liked talking about sex and love. These things were just not discussed when she was a young woman. More important subjects having enough money to pay the rent, the utilities and, last but not least, buying food.
Writing it all down is not enough for me. Not anymore. I need someone,a real human being, to confide in.
