07;:puzzles and pieces

"Hey how was dinner " Those where the very first questions Aurora asked Catalina two days later ."it was great I think well most of it  seb's mom she was awesome his dad was a whole different story " That night still brings back memories plus alot of questions. The shrill sound of Aurora's voice was enough to break her trance . "Holy fucking hell Cat what the hell is on your finger ?" Catalina had no idea what she was talking about there was nothing on her finger then it clicked she's engaged but she totally forgot about it with everything going on she couldn't bring her self to be excited about it ." Its a ring " she said with a shrug " the hell it is ,when did this happen?" "Ummmm  night of the dinner he was acting  kinda strange I thought he wanted to cancel but nope that's not it the next thing I know seb was on his knees proposing that's basically it nothing fancy about it " she said again with a shrug of her shoulders. Aurora knew something was wrong here Catalina never just shrugs unless something is bothering her and she's gonna find out "ok what is it ?" "What ,what are you talking about " Catalina feigns innocence "cut the crap girl I know that you know something is wrong so spil" "I dont know what your talking about Ro  nothing is wrong it's all in your head" Catalina completed with her head down she didn't have the courage to look Aurora in the eye and when she did she was meet with the look that  says
"You better speak up unless am gonna flush your head down the toilet " yeah like that's gonna happen Catalina thought to herself  after about five minutes of stare down between the two girls Catalina finally gave in ."fine ,fine I will tell you "
"Yesssss" Aurora  fist bump the air with an excited look on her face she sat down on the couch ready for the gist she so wanted to hear ".Catalina couldn't believe how excited her best friend can be over a gossip ." Ok am confused that's it " "what no mo nooo missy your confused and that's it you cant be serious common cat give me something here" .
" seb's mom wants us to have the wedding in one month Ro one fuckinh month seb and I tried to talking her out of it but she wasn't having any of it and now am confused because I dont know what to do remember we have a fashion week in Milan two freaking weeks  from now I cant be thinking of a wedding "  there she said it .Catalina waited for her friend to say something but nothing came only for her to have the shock of her life Aurora busted out laughing like real lungs closing in kinda laugh Catalina  thought she was gonna stop but she fell off the couch still laughing  she clutched  her hands around herself because of the deep intense rumble coming from her "what's so funny" Catalina thought to herself  " okay okay Ro that's enough am being serious here you should be a little  supportive of my dilemma" " I am, its just  what you said was so funny "  " no I dont think it was " Catalina  scolded. Aurora knew it was time to sober up " ok fine chill out" she raised her hands up in  mock surrender ."am here for you whatever you need but that bitch Is  crazy who plans a wedding in one month " " hey language she's gonna be my mother in-law " ooooh look who's playing the the good old fashion daughter in-law isn't that classic " Catalina shoved her to the side while standing up having that playful smile that was  tugged on her lips before it was completely wiped off she knew what her real problem was it wasn't the wedding and this didn't go unnoticed by Aurora   "hey hey what's wrong " Catalina took a deep breathe "something  strange is going on Ro I dont know what it is but its definitely strange " "how so?" Aurora furrowed her borrows in deep concentration she could understand what Catalina was telling her right now ." Listen cat you need to be a little more open about this what do you mean strange  everything is great your getting married what's strange about that ?"  Catalina pulled her lips into a straight line ready to tell her best friend everything she found out "remember the dinner on Friday at the Queens" "yeah the one you got engaged in" 
"Right you remember  well my point is I found out some stuffs that are quiet disturbing and I cant wrap my head around it "  and so Catalina told Aurora everything she found out from going to the bathroom to finding out Vincent's home office to eavesdropping on his conversation with that giant man with strange tattoos all over his body and how his name cant seem to leave her mind the icing on the cake would be how seb's dad wants to kill her at any cost .to her that's the biggest question why is seb's dad looking for her and most importantly she just meet the guy ."wait let me get this straight , seb's father  THE Vincent  Queen wants to kill you and you think you have some sought of connection to that guys name " she pretended to think "Raphael is it?" " yeah your all caught up great " " wow shit just got real" " yeah tell me about it I feel like my head is gonna crack open any minute if I dont get any answers " ok let's go over this from the beginning if am correct you said you feel a strange connection to the name Raphael well why dont we start from there" " how do you expect us to do that I dont know how the guys looks I only got to see his back "  "leave that to me"
"What are you gonna do Ro " "well nothing  I just thought of  something"  "and what's that"  Aurora  took a few steps closer to Catalina she reached forward to grab Catalina's shoulders with both arms "look cat I know you might not want to here this but we need to bring HIM in"  "what" Catalina shrugged her hands off her shoulders "we cant bring HIM in you know we cant his in Mexico  right now doing important stuff I cant just bring him in " Aurora sighed she knew her friend was right and it was stupid of her to actually request it " your right and am sorry what his doing is more important right now,so what are we gonna do right now ?" "I dont know Ro am out of options well I had no options to begin with since I dont know what am dealing with "  "gosh this is frustrating "Aurora  ran her hand through her  hair multiple times silence covered them, both in deep thoughts " I know what we should do" Aurora said . Catalina looked at her friend nodding her head slowly giving her the signal to continue .Aurora walked over to the coffee table unplugged her laptop walked back to the couch and took a sit she tapped the space beside her and Catalina didn't need to be told what to do "  ok so am gonna do some hacking stuff" " really now I didn't know you where a hacker"  " A magician never reavels his tricks"  right Catalina thought "so what are you up to miss hacker" " well if you must know am gonna search for Raphael " "are you crazy  they are millions if not billions of people with that name"
Aurora rolled her eyes at Catalina  not paying attention to her constant yappin "Dont you think I know that am gonna narrow it down to the the police database "
"Oh yeah and how do you know his a criminal" Catalina said as a matter of fact" " I bet he is, from your description of the guy  not to mention his badass tattoos" she moaned  "ewww Ro disgusting  dont tell me  your wet for Mr hot shot we dont even know who he is " " what ...you know I cant help it  l love those kind of guys " Catalina chuckled she couldn't believe her best friend sometimes  the ping sound of a notification brought them back from their little banter "yes  we are in baby" Aurora  cried "really" the little ray of hope Catalina had was crushed under a second when she saw  the name Raphael pulled up on the police database she realsed a breathe she didn't know she was holding until she saw that Raphael wasn't the one their looking for a little part of her was scared that they might actually find him on the data base and another part dosent wanna believe that her fianceè's father is associated with a criminal "dang it another dead end" Aurora said with distain  written all over her face "ooooh this one is cute"   "focus Ro his not the one" " oh yeah how would you know that? "Look at these pictures " Catalina  pointed at the laptop screen " it doesn't matter what crime you committ the police is gonna take pictures with that werid board that has your name and a number on it .now you see they take their pictures from the front ,side,and back .since we  dont know how he looks like but I can tell from his back plus the fact that he has a werid tattoo on his neck I am safe to say this is our guy .Aurora pulled his picture up Raphael DELACRUZ  they both uttered in unison "the hell" Catalina said with a shocked look on her face Aurora wasn't far behind because she had the same face Catalina has at the moment  .
"When I think I found something,  something else pops up  great just great I cant believe  this" " you need to calm down babe just because his surname is the same as yours doesn't make him your brother it might just be a coincidence so get your shit  together  "your right so what do you got " well I pulled up his profile and I got this" she tilted the laptop screen towards Catalina ,she squinted her eyes to take a better look "Raphael Delacruz " that left a bitter taste in her mouth " age twenty seven went to East high valley high school dropped out in college in his third year" Catalina rolled her eyes at this "typical " she muttered to herself " he did odd jobs yada yada. So I don't get it nothing here seems off" "just scroll down will ya"  "shit he...he has a criminal record okaaay let's see ummm , his been to jail six times for arson ,attempted rape ,mur..murder" all the colour drained from Catalina's face if she wasnt sitting her knees would have given out she gave the laptop back to Aurora who had a worried look on her face "this is bad" Aurora said "Damm right it is" Catalina yelled she was beginning to lose it "you need to calm down cat" " calm down  oh I am fucking calm this is ME being calm I dont get it why is he bearing the same surname as me I mean I would know if I have a brother right? My parents would tell me if I had a brother . that's not all this guy has a criminal record  lots if it why would seb's father be talking to a criminal, why does he wanna kill me "  " I dont know baby I wish I know .I hate seeing you all worked up like this " " I know this is my problem am gonna fix it I don't want you caught in the middle " bitch you crazy if you think am leaving you to do this by yourself hell this shit got me excited I mean it's more exciting than having to change into billions of clothes for a runway show" Aurora  groaned expressing her growing irritation to the job " am gonna find my answers one way or another if it's the last thing I do" " whoa whoa holdup I know that look in your eyes what are you planning to do ? " oh you know nothing fancy just barge in and demand answers from Vincent " Aurora's  jaw by now was already on the floor " your kidding right "
"Of course I am" or not Catalina was gonna look for answers and she was gonna get them  except she wouldn't demand more like secretly look for them  shes crazy but not that crazy to demand them from Vincent Catalina wasn't asking for a death wish. "Oh shit I think they just realised someone hacked into their database" Catalina's eyes where as wide as a saucer by now "what are you waiting for log the fuck out " "well its not fucking easy I need to clear all traces of us ever being there idiot" she punched in a few keys and in a minute or two she was done "phew that was close "  " last thing we need is the authorities on our back "  Catalina said " what now are we calling HIM in" Catalina gave her a deepan look which says " no we are not for  the last fucking time  at least not yet geez" " we will figure this out both of us .
