Posting the behind the scenes photo of the music video for me and Celo, I logged off right after to get fitted for my outfit.

"Yeah the green one looks good," I say as they touch up my makeup while checking how the outfit looked on me.

Celo gets directed on the set where to stand and I come in and he smiles.

"Beautiful," He kisses my cheek then the director tells me where to go to start off.

Pointing and having people move stuff around he plays the song and we start.

(Song and music video above, Bad Bunny is just a stand in for Celo but just imagine him being Celo lmaooo)

"I know that this won't happen again
But if it happens again, I know it would be your weakness," I sing in Spanish starting the open verse.

We continue by singing the next part together, "You left my body hot, hell, but you left my heart cold, winter, dreaming of you is how I sleep, Tell me, papi (Maya saying it), Tell me, mami (Celo saying it)," We keep doing the video then once it was done we wrapped up and changed going to get something to eat.

Before I got into Celo's car I get a call from Zae, "It's Kells, no one knows where he went. Have you heard from him? He performed last night, went into his tour bus then we went to get him for rehearsals and he wasn't there," I look to Celo then back at the phone, with a what the fuck type expression.

"Have you tried," I start naming the names of the people I know close to him.

Zae says yeah then sighs heavily, "If he reaches out let me know. We'll keep trying him."

I said okay then hung up getting in the car with Celo holding my head.

"Fuck," I mumbled shaking my head.

Celo looks at me, "Everything alright?"

I nod, "Yeah, let's just go eat please."

Once we get to the food place, I pick at my food worried about Kells, not really eating much.

Seeing I had something on my mind, he has the food put in a to go box and drives us to the beach.

"What are we doing here?" I look at the waves building and falling in the ocean.

"Vamos, liberemos tu mente," (Come on, let's free your mind) taking my hand after opening the car door to let me out, he takes me to the water, "I don't have a swimsuit or not–" Celo picks me up and goes into the water with me having the waves take us under.

We swim back up and I hear him laughing while I struggle to move my hair out my face, "No te preocupes, lo tengo," ( Don't worry, I got it) he helps move it then smiles, "See? Wash away the troubles." I shook my head chuckling low, "How could you tell I was in my head?" Celo pulls me close, "We were together for a long time, you just remember a lot of things from a person that meant something to you without forgetting," I nod then lay my head on his shoulder, not having anyone to really comfort me throughout everything.

"Kells bestfriend called, said they couldn't find him and asked if I heard from him," I told Celo.

Holding me more, he says, "And you're worried he's not okay?"

I nod, "I still want what's best for him. I just know I can't be there to hold his hand to do so."

Celo nods, "And you shouldn't. If he really wants to do better, he has to actually do it, with or without you."

Still standing in the ocean, I move looking up to Celo, his eyes land on mine then he gets ready to lean in.

Yobi tracking us down, waves his arms back and forth getting our attention.

"We have some news!" Yobi yells out having Celo put his thumb up to let him know we heard.

I move towards Yobi as he holds out his tablet to show what he's talking about.

In bold italic lettering on a article it said

Genius Records has shown Maya Cristain trending having her song Aislamiento hit #5 on Latin charts

"5? 5! I say overwhelmed with excitement and shock."

Celo jogs over to see and picks me up hugging me, "I can't believe it," Celo says happily putting me down.

Yobi reads more saying how excited they are for my career as an Latin artist but as a branching out model and hopefully fashion icon.

I smile big, "I have to call Titi," I say talking about my aunt and when I get to Celo's car I see my phone had a missed call.

Unlocking my phone I see it was the hospital.

Listening to the voicemail, my heart drops.

Panic fills inside and a broken cry lets out as I hear the words, "I'm sorry to inform you but..." saying her name and that she's no longer here in one sentence was so foreign to me. I couldn't believe it, I didn't want to. I lost Letty. Now her? I fall to my knees against the car having Yobi and Celo sprint over.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Yobi asks while Celo says the same thing in Spanish.

There was nothing that they could say to help the pain unleashed from hearing the devastating news.

How did it go from finding out I just topped the charts to losing my aunt?

Taking my phone, Celo listens to the voicemail then holds his head.

"Maya...I'm so sorry," He puts the phone down, lowering himself to where I am and holds me.

Everything was happening so fast that I just fell into a deep deep wave of emotions.

Celo helps me make it to the hospital overnight by taking a private plane, only to sign off on my aunt's death certificate saying she was in fact deceased.

While all this was happening, paparazzi caught whiff and released it to the public without me knowing.
