"Ok, ok that's enough," Sensei says to Miguel " save some for the tournament"Sensei adds "why are we the only one here sensei?" Miguel asks "cause let's face it you guys are the only chance I got of winning this thing" Sensei answers looking disappointed "so we're your best student?" I ask with a teasing smile "don't flatter yourself. you seen the others?" Sensei asks as I pull out my phone "what's so funny?" he asks Miguel "his girlfriend" I answer looking back down at my phone.

"ISABELLA DINNER" I hear my mother yell "COMING" I shout back "why is Sensei here?" I ask with a confused look walking into the dining room "Isabella don't be rude" my mom scolds "ok then" I say sitting down.

After Yaya says grace we all begin eating "so the twins told me about the tournament, I hope they don't get hurt" my mom says talking to Johnny, "Mom, I told you, referee, you can't get hurt" Miguel answers quickly "at least not permanently" Sensei adds "not helping" I whisper looking to Sensei "they'll be fine" Sensei quickly adds " So have you always lived in Reseda?" My mom asks, trying to make small talk, "No, I grew up in Encino," Johnny answers as my phone chimes.

unknown number: it's hey Eli

My phone read "hey did you give Eli my number" I ask Miguel quietly so my mom doesn't hear "yea why" Miguel answers "oh nothing" I say looking back down at my phone with a smile

me: hey

I answer "Mija off the phone please," my mom asks softly "ok mom," I say with a slight attitude "oh god sorry," Miguel says grabbing his phone as it buzzes "it's ok mijo be quick before your food gets cold" my mom reassures as I give her a look "wow" I snicker pulling my phone back out as my mother looks at me "who is that," my mom asks looking down at my phone "oh um a friend"I answer avoiding eye contact as I feel my cheeks burn red "mhm," my mom says in a teasing tone

Eli: wyd?

"I'm so glad the twins are finally making some nice friends, it's been difficult for them, we've had to move a lot," my mom says " where are you guys from originally?" Johnny asks " Ecuador " my mom answers "oh why did you leave?" Johnny asks again "because she fell in love with a shithead." Yaya says in Spanish I let out a little laugh as my mom glares at me "I got married at 18. after I became pregnant with the twins, I learned the truth about my husband's job." my mom says looking at me "let's just say he's a very bad man and he had to get far away from him. For the best you understand that right Bella," my mom adds, looking at me concerned "yes mama" I say looking at my food. "I'm going to bed, night sensei, night mom, night yaya," I say walking to my room

"Bella," Miguel says as I walk into our room "yea?" I ask, turning to him, "Sam was acting different when her dad asked who she was talking to." Miguel says "Duh she's obviously going to act differently around her parents." I answer sitting at my desk "so it's nothing I should be worried about?" Miguel asks unsure "yea you're overthinking it," I say, cleaning my face "ph ok night Bella," he says climbing to his bed "night Miguel" I answer turning off the light.
