Siempre te voy a querer

Chapter 29

It was now Tuesday, and after practice, Santi had planned to spend the day with Isa. He was excited to take her to a fair park that had opened a few months ago. But before their outing, he had to attend practice.

"Qué nervios tengo, hermano," he told Kevin as they walked onto the field.

"Nada más no vayas a decir una pendejada, y todo bien," Kevin reassured him.

Santi and Kevin continued talking while training.

"Mira, ahí viene el amor de tu vida," Kevin said, spotting Edson and Isa approaching the field.

"Ya la vi," Santi said, enchanted by her presence.

Kevin started teasing Santi, "No te pongas nervioso, nomás trata de no babear, eh?"

"¡Cállate, güey! Mejor preocúpate por tu entrenamiento," Santi replied, laughing.

"Nomás digo, hermano, nomás digo," Kevin teased back with a grin.

After a few hours, practice was over. Santi approached Isa to confirm their plans.

"¿Todavía te apetece nuestra salida hoy?" he asked, smiling.

"Sí, claro. ¿A qué hora pasarás por mi?" she replied.

"A las 5 pm, ¿te parece bien?"

"Vale, cuidado. Adiós," Isa said, hugging him.

"Adiós, Isa," he responded, feeling a rush of excitement.

They departed ways and went to their homes.

"Edson!" Isa called out once they were home.

"¿Qué quieres?" he responded.

"¿Me ayudas a escoger mi outfit para hoy?" she asked.

"Es con Santi, ¿verdad?" he asked knowingly.

"Sí, sé que no te llevabas bien con él, lo siento," she said.

"No pasa nada, ahora ya nos llevamos mejor," he said, patting her back. "A ver, ¿cómo te quieres ver?"

After many outfits and combinations, the siblings finally settled on the perfect outfit for the fair. Isa was wearing a dark green crop top that matched her eyes perfectly, some jeans, and white Air Forces. It was basic but stylish.

"Gracias, Edson," Isa said as Edson left her room.

"No hay de qué, Isa," he replied.

Isa grabbed her stuff and waited for Santi. A few minutes later, she heard a knock at the door and opened it.

"Hola, Santi," she said, hugging him.

"Hola, Isa," he said, returning the hug. "Te traje unas flores. No sé si te gusten, perdón."

"No te preocupes, los tulipanes son mis favoritos," she said, receiving them with a smile and putting them in a vase. "Pasa, Santi."

"Hermano!" Edson called out, emerging from his room.

"Qué onda," Santi greeted as they did their handshake.

"Me la traes antes de las 12. Cuídala, Santiago," Edson said, pointing at him.

"Eso haré," Santi promised.

They said goodbye to Edson and started driving to the fair. In the car, Santi complimented Isa on her outfit and her scent.

"Te ves increíble, Isa. Ese color te queda perfecto," he said.

"Gracias, Santi. Tú también te ves muy guapo," she replied, smiling.
