Alleyway..
12:00 pm.

You literally fell into a dumpster after testing your agility...which has now caught the attention of...your so called enemy's mom and her friend.

"I'll call you back..." you tell your roommate and hang up the call.
"Hey I know you! Don't I? You're Miles's amiga right?"
"Uhh...." You shift your feet and look at her sheepishly. Friends? We're far from that. He literally despises me especially after his hair... rip 🪦.

"Ehm..I'll catch up with you Glenda! Come on, I'll help you up. Are you hurt?" She walks towards you and holds your arm dusting off any dirt from your sweater.

"I'm okay.. don't worry"
"I heard a crash and saw you climbing out of that nasty dumpster!What were you doing up there?"
"I slipped. I was putting up decorations.. ahh my moms gonna be so pissed." You lie to her...terribly.
"Ah, I'm sure she'd understand. But you have to be more careful. You'll give your mom a heart attack."

"Yeah.. I will. But you remember me?"
"Of course! You spoke to me during a conference and got an award for one of the subjects si? Science right?"

"Yeah yeah, I did. It's good to see you again Ms. Morales."
"Look at you calling me Ms.Morales, so well-mannered.." she gives you a warm smile while guiding you out of the alleyway. You chuckle a little as you walk beside her. You feel her hand wander to your elbow and you grit your teeth in pain a little.

"Ay, you're hurt!"
"Crap so I am.."
she digs into her purse and pulls out a bandaid.
"Wait you just carry a pack of bandaids around-?"
"Si. Is there a problem with that?"
.....
"No. No carry on."

She puts an ointment before pressing the bandaid onto your elbow. And you look back at your beige bandaid.
"Wait a minute. Why aren't you in school?!" She lets go of you and puts both her hands on her hips. And you step back surprised with her change in mannerism. You put both your hands up as you try to think of an excuse.

"I ah.. had a family emergency. I had to leave early.... Things have been rough."
I'm going to hell.

"Ohh poor thing, it's okay, it'll be alright. We just have to hang on for our family." She drops her hands and puts a hand on your shoulder. Like Miles did this morning.

"Yeah.. for our family." You clear your throat and think back to your family and how you haven't seen them since you've been busy with school. But you brush it off.

"Y/n right?"
"That's right."
"I'm on break right now, do you want to go sit down somewhere? Are you hungry at all?"

"Oh.. no no I'm okay!"
"Aw come now, don't be so modest let's go to.. Foam Party ah?"
"Ms Morales- really it's okay."
"Y/n. Don't say no to me! I want to talk to the chica who has my boys head spinning these days."
Hold. the fuck up. What did she say?!

"I'm sorry what?"
"Y/n this, y/n that! Now I finally get to meet you and now you're saying no." She gives you a sad look and you laugh as she fakes it. But.. she did catch your attention. Miles talks about you to his mom? His mom?! Now you had to go. You stop walking for a minute and you put your hands in your pockets.

"You know what? I'd love to go with you Ms. Morales."
"That's just what I wanted to hear bonita." She winks at you as you both walk to the cafe.

"Foam Party" Cafe
12:06 pm.

You take a seat next to the window as she sits across from you.
"So, what do you want to eat?"
"Ahh I don't know yet, but you go ahead and order first."
"Hmmm.. alright." She orders an iced mocha and she turns to you with a small smile.
