My arm was wrapped around Andres as his legs were tangled with mine from last night. I couldn't really remember what happened, just up until him beating up some guys. There was loud banging coming from the front door. Andres groans and gets out of bed. I stayed until Andres called for me.

"Marisol!" I picked myself up from my bed and put on Andres shirt and shuffled to the door. It was Angel standing in front of Andres, who wearing nothing but boxers.

"We gotta go." He coughs.

"Go where?" I yawned.

"Get Ez out of the police station." I snapped it out.

"Yeah give me a second." I got to my room, grabbed decent smelling shorts and shoes. I hop on my shoes and Andres hands me my bag.

"See you later." He said as I walked away with Angel.

"No you wont." Angel rolled his eyes and we got in the truck. Angel seemed awkward, don't know why. It was the vibe i was getting. "So-"

"Dont start." I pinched my nose, leaning against the window.

"Coco know?" I just let out a chuckle. "You guys good?" I didn't answer. We made it to the jail and bailed Ez out, with the money that Angel had left. We waited for him outside, leaning against the truck. We watched Ez limp his way to us, looking like shit. I can feel the awkward tension between us, I mean yesterday was something else, meaning a blur. We didn't say a word and got in the truck. I sat in the middle of the muscular boys, no room to move. "Sorry about yesterday." Angel came out clean. He shrugs my arm.

"I was a shitty sister." I hummed. "Ive been fucking up lately."

"Saw Adelita." Angel sighs. Both me and Ez turned to him. Well fuck, no wonder he was shitty yesterday.

"Shit when?"

"Few days ago."

"They let her out? How?" I looked at him with puzzled eyes. How? Thats was my question. He shakes his head, puffing out air. "Is she okay?"

"Nah. Shes not."

"The baby?" My nephew. Angel shakes his head again, i looked down. I knew what that meant.

"Oh fuck." Ez sighs.

"My little boy." Ez and I apologized to him. I can feel what he was going through. Losing a child, god. When i lost my baby, I couldn't even look at another baby ever because all I wanted was to have my own back. Angel told us more about how she left him again.

"Coco and I broke up." The two looked at me. I just stared ahead.

"Wait, what the fuck!"

"No ring." Ez looks down.

"You hid it for that long?" I remembered when he tried to look at my hand the other day. I just nod.

"You were crazy for that mother fucker? Why?"

"We just..." I shrugged, wiping away my tears. "Fell apart." I lied. "Just dont, dont hurt him, okay? I dont want that. Dont tell anyone You both have to promise me."

"So Andres?" Ez was shocked to the news.

"Andres? The guy from the bar?"

"Friends with benefits i guess?" I rubbed my eyes. "He means nothing to me." Ez and Angel held my hands. "Dont feel sorry for me, it almost makes me sorry."

"You both will get another shot." Ez tells us. "You'll meet the right person and...have a family." As if that was easy. Coco was my right person. Now, he's gone. He left me.
