It was a warm Tuesday night, Miguel was in his bedroom playing some loud music while he was practicing his punches, while Rita was sitting on his bed looking at how well he's doing with his punches while doing her algebra homework. She see's that Miguel is getting pretty good at his punches.
Meanwhile Miguel's grandmother was in the kitchen making some dinner while his mother is still in the hospital doing her shift. As she was about finished cooking the food, she went to the Miguel's bedroom and knock on his door to call him and Rita for dinner.
"Miguel, ven a poner la mesa para la cena." Said Ross in Spanish and Rita looks at Miguel.
"Miguel, your grandma is calling for you." Said Rita looking at Miguel
"Miguel!" Said Rosa as she tried to get Miguel.
"Will be right there." Said Miguel as he was breathing from the punches. "Almost finished."
"You're getting pretty good with your punches Miguel." Said Rita smiling at Miguel.
"Thanks." Said Miguel smiling at Rita.
Then after a few minutes, Rita and Miguel went to the dining room to get dinner ready. As the table was set and Rosa serve the food, Miguel sits down at the table with Rita next to him, since he invited her for dinner. As they eat, they hear the door open meaning that their mom is back home, and Carmen came inside.
"Mira quién llegó." Said Rosa in Spanish as she smiles.
"Hey, guys." Said Carmen as she smiles. "Mmm, it smells good in here."
"Hice pollo en pipian." Said Rosa in Spanish.
"Ay, gracias, mamá." Said Carmen in Spanish as she kissed Miguel head and hugs Rita. "I'm sorry I'm late again, things are crazy at the hospital."
"It's okay, you're short-staffed." Said Miguel as he look at their mother. "But we saved you some food."
"So, did you guys decided what you're going as for the Halloween dance?" Asked Carmen as she look at Miguel and Rita.
"Well, I was thinking Deadpool, but the costume's a little pricey." Said Miguel as he look at his mom.
"Well, how much is it?" Asked Carmen and Miguel realize his mistake.
"Oh, it doesn't have to be Deadpool." Said Miguel as he tried to change the subject.
"You want a Deadpool costume?" Asked Carmen as she looks at Miguel and then her mother. "We'll make you a Deadpool costume."
Rita thought that it was sweet of how much they are dealing with not having any much money, but they what they can to make it all up. It reminded her of how her dad will do anything to get Rita anything she wants, even if he has to spend all his money or make something for her, she appreciates it, and Rosa began to chuckle.
"No, esto no es una maquiladora." Said Rosa as she look at Carmen.
"What about you Rita, what are you going as for the halloween dance?" Asked Carmen as she looks at Rita.
"I'm going as fairy for the Halloween Dance, I had my mom's old costume and I was thinking of retouching it." Said Rita and Carmen smile at her as she saw Miguel's hand that's a bit bruised.
"Oh, Miggy." Said Carmen and Miguel look at his mother. "What happened to your hand?"
Miguel and Rita forgotten that his hands were a bit bruised since he was practicing his punching with the dummy in the dojo, so they both try to come up with a good excuse so that Miguel's mother won't know about the karate lesson till Rosa speaks for them.
