"Here baby," My mom handed me some juice, "Thanks Mama," I thanked her as I took the orange juice and put it down in front of me. "So, as I was saying, podríamos sacar algunas cosas de su habitación para colocar algunas cosas para el bebé allí, una cuna y algunos armarios para su ropa y otras cosas para juguetes." (We could move some things out of your room to fit some things for the baby in there, a crib and some cabinets for his clothes and other stuff for toys.) My mom said as she drank some coffee from her mug.

"Ma, I told you it's okay. We'll figure it out. I have a lot of space in my room," I told her, "But there's more space in my room baby. I and Marco could move into your room, you could get ours with the baby, we can talk about college stuff with Kairi and his mom," She told me, but I shook my head.

"Marco already hates the fact that I have a boyfriend and that I got him pregnant, he would hate my guts if I made him switch rooms, it's okay Mama, I promise it's fine," I promised, and she sighed as she put a hand on my shoulder. "No puedo creer que esté teniendo un Nieto, y tú y Kairi van a tener un niño pequeño," (I can't believe I'm gonna have a grandbaby, and you and Kairi are gonna have a little boy,) My mom said with a smile, I could see tears in her eyes. "Oh Ma, it's okay please don't cry," I begged as I leaned over, hugging her tightly as she cried, I'm hoping they were tears of joy.

"Look, he's adorable," Gianluca said as he pointed to the small cage with a small fluffy white dog inside laying down on his bed. "He's a cutie, let's find mom, put your puppy eyes on to ask her," I said as I patted his head and we walked across the pet store to where the fishes were.

"Mama, we found a puppy we like," I said as I slapped the back of Gianluca's head. "Ma, please, at least come look at him," He said giving her puppy eyes, she gave us an annoyed look before following behind us to where all the puppies were, "Which one is he?" She asked as she threw her purse over her shoulder.

"The fluffy one, look, his names Pequeño," I told her as I bent down by the cage, "Yeah, he's cute," She nodded, "Great, so should I call somebody to ring us up or what?" I asked as I looked around for any employees. "Wow, Mattia, who said we were getting him?" My mom said as she gave me a stern look. "But you just said so..." I said as I looked down at my shoes. My hands on Gianluca's shoulders.

"Getting a dog will be hard, you guys know that dogs poop and pee all over the house, they need to be bathed, and they're just little monstruos," My mom said as she put a hand on her hip, "Monstruos?" Gianluca asked as he turned around to look at me. "Monsters in Spanish dumbass." I teased him. "Ohhh, okay." He nodded.

"Please Mama, I promise we'll take care of him," Gianluca begged her with a pouty lip. She sighed and looked back down at the dog, I smiled seeing that the dog was chewing on his squeaky toy. "Okay, fine mijo," She said as she looked around for an employee. "Yes!" He shouted as he bent down by the dog, smiling.

"Where you guys going?" I asked as I laid down on the floor where Pequeño was laying on his bed, too shy to move around. "To talk to the lady about me being home," Gianluca said as he slipped his shoes on and out his jacket on, "The social services lady?" I asked as I covered Pequeño with a small white frog blanket. "Yep, we'll be back later Mattia, make sure you watch him and invite Kairi over if you want," She said as she opened the front door and both her and Gianluca walked out.

I smiled down at Pequeño as I grabbed my phone to call Kairi, seeing I already had a few texts from Roshaun, obviously most of the texts seemed important, I went into my contacts and quickly scrolled down for his number, it rang a few times before Roshaun answered, "Mattia!" He yelled, I moved the phone from my ear, "What happened?" I asked putting the phone on speaker, "I'm almost too scared to send you screenshots of this," He said, "What do you mean?" I asked as I stood up and sat down on the couch, keeping my eyes on Pequeño.
