Armando's POV
I was planning on meeting my mother this morning. In the first place I wanted Alina to come with me but she insisted that I went by myself. She believes that this could be a good mother and son bonding moment. I don't know in what fantasy she lives, but there is no bonding today. How much I want it to and despite all that love I have had for my mother, my trust is broken.
I arrived at the house of Alina's family, waiting for my mother to come meet me. One of her man was already standing in front of me trying to intimidate me. "That isn't necessary you know." I made fun of him.
"Armando, no seas tan grosero! (Don't be so rude)" I heard my mother tell me as she walked towards me. "No me dices qué hacer, ¿vae? (You don't tell me what to do, alright?" I said back to her. "Mi hijo, claro que sí, soy tu madre. (My son, of course I do, I'm your mother)" She told to me while she gave me a little kiss on my cheek.
"Ven conmigo. (Come with me)" I followed her inside. She sat down on the couch with some tea and made space for me to sit next to her. I sat down next to her. "No vine aquí para tomar el té contigo. Quiero respuestas. (I did not come here to have tea with you. I want answers)" I told her. Alina and I came here for answers, for information and nothing more. I did not came here to rebuild a relationship with my "death" mother.
"Ella es adorable. (She's lovely)" My mother said to me refering to Alina. "No esperaba eso de una Gomez. (I did not expect that from a Gomez)" She said looking at me with a stern look on her face.
"Ella no se parece en nada a su padre. (She is nothing like her father)" I said back to her. She smiled. I don't know if that was a genuine smile or a smile that she know more than I did.
"Mamá, ¿por qué estás aquí? En la casa de su familia. (Mama, why are you here? In the house of her family)" I asked her.
"Neustras familias se remontan a mucho tiempo Armando. (Our families go back a long time)" She explained to me how she met the Gomez family. Her husband and Gerald were like brothers. Until they betrayed each other for more money and business. Gerald ended up in prison and Benito took over Miami, Mexico and the harbors in Europe. This made Gerald the man who he is now. Wanting to be the greatest druglord of all.
"Tengo una manera de derrotarlo. Pero te necesito tu ayuda con eso. (I have a way to take him down. But I need you)" I looked at my mother, wondering if she still thinks I'm that stonecold killer she once knew.
"Dejé de hacer eso. (I stopped doing that)" I told her."¿No mataste a algunos de sus hombres no hace mucho? ¿De vuelta en Los Ángeles? (Didn't you kill a few men of him not so long ago? Back in LA?)" She asked me, not believing that I stopped. "Una vez mamá. (One time)"
"Oh sí, lo olvidé. Eras iqual que tu padre ahora. Algo así como un policía, ¿verdad? (Oh yes, I forgot. You're just like your father now. Something like a cop right?)" She kind of made fun of me, what made me being annoyed with her.
"Mamá por favor. ¿Tiene alguna informacíon que podamos usar contra Gomez? (Mama please. Do you have some information that we can use against Gomez?)" I asked her. "No. Sólo si ayudas a tu madre. (No. Only if you help your mother)" I stood up and walked away from her.
"Armando!" "Me vas ayudar tarde o temprano! (You're gonna help me soon or later)" I looked back at her. "Tal vez, pero no ahora. (Maybe, but not right now)" I said back. As I made my way to the car she called for me once again. I did not listen to what she had to say. Only picked up a few things that left me confused. But I did not want to go back to her and talk to her about it. I waved goodbye to my mother and drove back to the hotel.
