Capítulo dos-La Familia Madrigal

Well shit, she was fuming, even more so when she realised who we were, I avoided her glare and side looked mi hermana,
"Why are you here Alejandro." The woman had a familiar voice, almost as if I had heard it before, but I couldn't place my finger on it exactly,
"May we come in please, it perhaps might take a bit to explain." Paola's politeness shocked me, I could hear the irritation in her voice but didn't consider it as too bad, the woman nodded wearily and let us in, she led us to the kitchen where another woman was making some Arepas, she seemed around her early 50's or late 40's and gave off a motherly feel, she was nice, I could feel it,
"Who are th- oh, Paola? Why are you here?" I swear I nearly got whiplash turning my head so quickly to look at them both, Paola removed her hand from mine and accepted the offered food, shoving it into my mouth, I choked a little and swallowed, egh, I hate Arepas,
"Like I said to Alma, it's going to take awhile to explain, also, Alexis, don't pull such a disgusted face, it's healing you, you just need to wash all the blood away." I scowled a little, I knew what it done and quite frankly, I didn't really care, so I just shrugged and put it down,
"I appreciate the food but I'm not so fond of Arepas." Pao looked at me annoyed, and apologised for my behaviour, I just rolled my eyes,
"It's perfectly okay don't worry, we have two other teens so I'm quite used to the attitude, although you look like you haven't eaten in a while querido." My throat tightened a little and I chuckled dryly, "what do you like?" The question shocked me slightly,
"Um, im alright thank you." She raised a slight eyebrow, "I like buñuelos if you really must know Señora." She smiled and started making them, I gave the Arepa to Paola so it didn't go to waste, she nodded and went on to explain why we was there.

After about 2 hours Alma (the angry old woman) had decided to let us stay for dinner, and that I could stay for the time being, rules had been said over and I was all healed up, basically, I was healthy and safe now, however Paola refused to stay for dinner and left just before the rest of the Madrigals came home, I was slightly anxious but Julieta said the family was nice, I was still worried, but I felt more uncomfortable and out of place now.

We was all seated at the table now, every once and a while I'd get a strange look or weird stare, as well as the occasional eye contact that usually resulted in an awkward staring contest, at the end of the meal, before everybody left, Alma stood up to make an announcement,

'Here we go'

It's not that I'm not grateful, I'd just rather be at home in the war, knowing that my familia is safe,

"Everyone, before you all scatter of to your rooms for the night, I'd like to introduce Alexis Alejandro,"

'Well she couldn't have said my name more toxically could she.' I smiled uncomfortably and Alma carried on,

"He is going to be staying here whilst his familia is at war, as he is male and the same age as Camilo, it is agreed he shall stay with you in your room, we was going to put him in the nursery with Mirabel, but it would have been quite awkward for him. That is all, I bid you all a good sleep, la Familia Madrigal!"

Everyone copied her final statement and I looked around for this Camilo boy,
"Looking for someone?" I jumped slightly and looked at the person who basically appeared out of nowhere, "I'm Camilo, you're Alexis correct?" I nodded and he grabbed my arm, pulling me up the stairs of the Casita, I just went with it, no point resisting, he slightly loosened his grip and opened a door with a mischievous looking boy on it, the name above read 'Camilo' it was an interesting door, probably no less different from the house inside,

'Holy shit!'

The room was massive and looked extremely grand, I turned to Camilo to find him already watching me with an over prideful look,
"Whatcha think?" He raised an eyebrow and I shrugged,
"It's decent." He gave me a look of false offence and I chuckled, "it's very cool, definitely different from what I'm used to." He smiled proudly once again and helped set me up a bed on one of the sofas, then settling down for sleep himself.
