Ciara's Response to Alexa- Chapter 5 through 6


In response to Alexa, thanks for pointing out that they mentioned his name; I never noticed!  Also, Alexa mentions how there is “something magical about meeting someone you know you will never see again”, and this is a valid reason I had not thought about for why Sal is so intrigued by the Mexican lady.  In fact, Sal seems to be drawn in by every woman he encounters, probably in search of a fling.  His desires are understandable considering he just got out of a bad relationship.  Also, I felt the same way Alexa did about how the blonde girl was looking for a new life in New York.  It is just ironic how Sal left New York because life is supposed to be so much more exciting and fulfilling out West, while the blonde is heading for New York in search of a more satisfying life.  Different strokes for different folks, I guess.  Answering Alexa’s final question, I hope Sal will find excitement in Denver despite the divide between his former group.  If not, I think he will find that he faces the same problems in the West as he did in New York.  As I mentioned in my post: to Sal, it is not so much about the place, but the people.
