I was with my tía Julieta in casita's kitchen, making arepas. I already knew it would only be a matter of time before Camilo gets down here, due to the smell of the freshly made arepas. He loves them! "Dolores, dear, I'm gonna go to the bathroom real quick," tía tells me. I nod and continue taking the freshly made arepas out of the oven. They do smell pretty good! As I am taking them out of the oven, I hear quiet footsteps coming down the stairs. I already know who it is, it's Camilo. "Do I smell.. *sniff* arepas?!" Camilo said, running into the kitchen. I sigh but smile. "Yes.. Camilo, they're arepas." I say. I finally place them on the counter. Camilo picks up one of the arepas. "Cami, they are still hot. Don't pick it up!" I say, but it's too late. "Oh, my dear arepa, it's okay. You are no longer in that oven, everything is going to be okay! I love you." Camilo said, kissing the top of the arepa after. Jesus, when it comes to arepas, Camilo's brain.. he's just a lil bit crazy. 'Isn't he banned from the kitchen tho?' I thought. Uh oh..
