I'm going to be a legend

Chapter fourteen: outside of work

It's Saturday and I just arrived at the airport of home sweet home: New York. I was glad to see Selena, my other friends and even go visit my old job. I also decided to meet up with my parents. I wonder how that will go. I looked around and heard a familiar squeal.

"BESTIE!", Selena stood with a big sign that says 'welcome home superstar'

I beamed and ran and hugged her tightly. "I missed you sel!", I said.

"It's been almost 3 months I missed you too! Remever my boyfriend?", she said

I smiled. "Yes! Hey John!", I said

He smiled. " hey Mariana. I be seeing you on TV. You do a great job".

I smiled. "Thanks".

" ooh are you to spill who is the black suit person?", Selena asked

I shrugged. " even I don't know they decided is best to keep it a secret for me too, so I could be just as surprised".

"I can't believe my best friend is a wwf wrestler", Selena said excitedly

" me too! I've also been looking at houses because I think this time I buy myself one",

Selena gasped. "John does real estate he can help you find the perfect property".

I smiled. "I'd like that. Next month I'm taking raw and smackdown off so I can house search. is it crazy to think about how just three months ago I couldn't even afford rent but look at me now. I'm actually looking for a house".

Selena hugged me. " I'm so proud of you, baby girl."

I hugged her back. " you always suck me do this whole process. Trust me I'm gonna return the favor."

Selena shook her head. " you don't have to girl. that's my job as your best friend."

" no I'm going to. I want to help you as much as you used to help me. I'm starting off with giving you and John free tickets to wrestlemania."

Selena gasped. " OMG are you serious?".

I nodded. " the hotel, The tickets, the extra money for food and things to do are on me. Wrestlemania is in Orlando Florida. I'll buy some tickets and we can offer to Disney one of those days".

Selena smiled."Mari you got me wanting to cry. Are you going to invite your family?".

" I'll give them some tickets to depending on how it goes", I said

" wow thank you for that", said John

I nodded. " of course I'll buy y'all tickets later today. First let's  get out this airport. I'm tired of airplanes. I'm on them every week".

We all left the airport and went to John car. My phone rung.

"Omg!", I answered the phone. It was Lita. "Amy(her real name)! How are you?", I asked.

"Hey Mari. I'm good. I hate going through tables. That hurted bad. Bubba and DVON kept checking on me afterwards", lita said

I laughed and Selena stared in shock. "Omg! Can you tell her I love her so much and a big fan?!!", Selena said

I put lita on speaker and gave Selena the phone so she can meet her favorite women's star. Outside of work, I love how everyone actually get along. Stacy and I are actually friends and sable and I don't talk much but when we do we get along well. After talking to Lita, Selena handed me the phone.

"I'll see you Monday Amy. Where are y'all?", I said

"We're getting on the plane we'll be out there later. Are you staying at the hotel or are you staying with your friend?", asked Lita

"I'm staying with Selena. I'll see you soon", I said

"Bye girl", lita said. She hung up and I smiled as we headed from the airport.

~~~~~~~~~~~~that night~~~~~~~~~~~~

I walked inside the restaurant I'm supposed to meet my parents at. It'll be my first time seeing them in over a year. I walked to the host stand.

"Hello. I think the reservation is under Pablo Montez? (My father)", I said

"Of course. Follow me", the hostess said. I followed her and I got a little happy when I seen my mom and dad. Even though don't like what they did I can't lie. I did miss them a lot. My mom and dad looked up.

"Mari! Hey sweetie", my mom said. I smiled a small smile as the both of them stood and hugged me. I started tearing up. There is no hug as special as getting a hug from your parents, especially after not seeing them for a while.

"Hey guys", I said.

They let me go. "Have a seat honey. Dinner is on us by the way", dad said

Wow. That's a good start, I expected them to expect me to cover it. I sat down across from them

" how have you been?", mom asked

I shrugged. " I've been OK. I'm actually doing better for myself now. Been looking at houses. I bought a new car", I explained

Dad smiled. "We're proud of you Mariana. Really. Are you going to stay in New York?".

I sighed " I love New York. I was raised here after we moved from Mexico. But I'm also thinking about Florida. I'll have my decision by next month once I get the chance to go to Florida for wrestlemania and I'm going to look at houses out there and see what I like".

Mom nodded. "Mariana, perhaps your dad and I owe you an apology. It was wrong to start treating you that way. Your parents, the first thing we should've did was support your decision and believe in you. There's never a day that goes by where we  regret what we did. Honey, the whole year you haven't seen us and that we claimed we disowned you, we still thought about you every day. We love you and always have. We always wanted what's best for you. We thought the WWF was impossible but you proved us wrong andand we watched it on TV and seen just how talented our beautiful girl is. You're going to be a star. You're going to be a legend. You're already popular. Just want you to know from here on out, We will never doubt your decisions. We will support every decision you make. We're sorry", mom said

I smiled. "Wow".

"And also we will never ask you for help financially. I just don't want you to think refusing you for your money, honey. We're not. Take care of ourselves perfectly fine ok?", dad said

I smiled. "Thank you guys. I forgive yall. And I do want to help. I always told myself when I get financially well, the first thing I would do is buy my family a house".

Mom smiled. " that would be nice sweetheart, but we already got a house".

I shrugged. "Dad do you still want that new pick up truck? Mom, I can get you that Cadillac you wanted! I just want to help and show my appreciation".

Dad laughed. "Just suprise us honey. We don't expect anything from you".

I nodded. "Thanks guys".

"Now tell us how it feels to be a superstar in the wwf?", mom said

I smiled and started talking about it to them. I guess they really did mean well.
