I look at the sky , instead of Looking at Oscar
Gia - when you brought out a gun on Rio
Oscar looks so guilty - I know I am sorry again mama
Gia - stop talking and let me speak
He smiles - you got my attention
Gia - when you brought out a gun , it brought back memories and you pointed it at Rio and he did so much for me . So say if you did shoot him and he dies , i would lose another person and I don't want that to happen again .
Oscar pulls me closer to him and I rest my head on his chest .
Oscar - you and Rio , what were you
Gia - he was my friend maybe even my boss at one point .
Oscar - boss for what
Gia - when I turned 13 he found me fighting on the streets and he was 18 and he had connections with street fighters . So when I was 13 I had my first street fight and I was getting paid a lot . I was fighting grown women  and I would win . Then when I got older I started fighting grown men , it helped me eat and gave  me a place to sleep so I wouldn't have to sleep at my current fosters .
Oscar - how did you know how to fight that good
Gia - I had to know how to defend myself .
Oscar - why mama who was hurting you .
Gia - you sure you wanna know my story
Oscar lifts my face up to look at him in his eyes. His beautiful brown ones stare back at my blue/grey ones
Oscar - how about  we tell eachother our stories . I can start
He wants to open up to me to make me feel better. This man is so much more than a gang leader.
Oscar - my Dad went to prison when I was younger as he was in the Santos and messed around badly and he got caught . He is still there now and he never wrote to me or Cesar , he forgot about us . He left us with the women who birthed us . She was a crack addict and did any other drug , oh and that bitch was a alcoholic to .
I can see a tear on his eyes and I go to wipe it but he grabs my hand. He doesn't want me to see him right now but he doesn't even know how much our story is alike .  I remove my hand from his and wipe his eyes anyway and he  looks at me with a look I can't figure out , then he continues.
Oscar - she would be in and out of me and hermano's life like we were a train station . I raised Cesar , and I was a kid myself . I never had parents to teach me how to be a parent I just did it . I never even had time to be someone's son. It didn't go all bad though I got into culinary school . So mama you gonna like my cooking , but I couldn't go as I didn't want to leave Cesar with the women . So I didn't go and I joined the Santos so I had people to be around and protect Cesar so I didn't have to do it by myself . Then people started to fear me and I rose up the Santos and I became one of the leaders . Shit I can't believe I told you that ,
I am still that strong spooky btw so you know .
Gia - to me you ain't that strong spooky
He looks disappointed and sad and turns his head to the side . He didn't let me finish .
Gia - you are that strong Oscar , who raised a little boy when he was still a boy . That makes you stronger than any next man on the streets .
Oscar - really
He says "really" as if it is a question , I like vulnerable Oscar he put his trust in me so I need to do it for him . I don't answer the question I just show him .
I take my head of his chest and put my body between his legs and lean on his chest .
He looks at me confused but it goes as I lean in closer to his face and he catches on .
I kiss him and our lips move in sinc . It's not a rough kiss , it's a gentle kiss and i pull away and I give him a finale peck .
He does his biggest smile I have seen him have .
Gia - what's with that smile , I have never seen that smile before .
Oscar- you gave me a kiss because you wanted to kiss me .
Gia - Yh I guess I did .
Oscar - can I hear your story now
Gia - yes
I tried to move out of the position and he keeps me in place .
Oscar - nah stay in that place mama . We both comfortable .
Ok time to get this over with ...
