Isa went to her mother's restaurant to assist her. Her mother wasn't feeling well so she asked her to go home. Isa took over the affairs of the shop, she attended to the customers and when they all left, she cleared the tables.
She was washing the dishes when Jaime strolled in. She looked up at him, she hadn't seen him in a while and she missed him.
" Jaime"She called from the back of the shop.
Jaime turned to see her washing the dishes. " What are you doing here? Where's Aunt Sonia?" He asked walking towards her.
" She's not feeling too well, I sent her home" She answered.
Jaime bent in front of her and rolled up his sleeves.
" What are you doing?" Isa asked him
" What does it look like I'm doing?"
" You don't have to "
Jaime didn't answer, he took the sponge from her and began to wash the dishes.
" Thank you Jaime" She said as she hugged him. " You're the best" She kissed his cheek making Jaime stop in complete shock.
" What did you do that for?" He asked. He liked it at first, but as soon as he remembered that she had a boyfriend, his heart broke.
" What do you mean?" Isa asked. " I can't kiss you?"
" You have a boyfriend, you can't just be kissing anybody "
" You're not anybody. You are my best friend " She said and hugged him tightly. Jamie quickly wrapped his hands around her to stop them from falling.
He didn't realize how much he had missed her until now.He buried his face in her neck, She smelt so good that he wanted to keep hugging her.
Isa chuckled as she felt his breathe on her neck. She recalled all the time they would run around together as kids, the times they had sat and stared at the stars. She missed the moments when they would laugh and play. She missed him most especially.

Ricardo watched as Isa and Jaime hugged. He had gone to her house but he was told by her mom that she was at the shop. He had arrived when Jaime was helping her with the dishes, he was about to call out to her when she suddenly hugged him and kissed him on the cheeks. His heart sank. What was going on? She pulled him into an embrace and he watched as Jaime wrapped him arms around her waist, how he buried his face in her neck and how she laughed. He clenched his fist. He trusted Isa, he knew she only saw him as a friend. It was Jaime he didn't trust. He had seen how he looked at her, how he acted around her and it made him uncomfortable.
" Cardo?"
Isa's voice brought him out of his thoughts. She was now standing in front of him.
" When did you get here?" She asked.
" Just now" He lied. He looked behind her to see Jaime staring at him. " What are you doing?"
" Jaime is helping with the dishes, I'm about to lock the shop"
" Oh" He pulled her closer with his arm.
Isa gasped as her chest collided with Cardo's. She wrapped her arms around his neck and looked up at him.
" I missed you" He said.
" Me too" she planted a kiss on his lips.
Ricardo brought her closer by wrapping his arms around her, he was about to kiss her when he heard a sound. They both turned around to see broken plates all over the ground.
