Chapter 27

Isa

Once Luca left, we went back to practice and all the girls were talking to me about how cute we are and all that. Katia and I were walking off the field and she said to me,

"I'm really glad you have him, it must hard leaving everything you know to come here, with strangers no less."

I knew this would come up at some point. In theory it is unbelievably weird and kind of dumb on my part, but she was my best friend so I owed her a valid answer. I mean don't get me wrong coming here was the best thing I've ever done.

"Yeah, it was tough but I was so eager to come here because I wouldn't ever have the opportunities to live out dreams and have this life. I know that from the start, but coming here would change everything for me. I mean look at where I am now."

I said, we stopped walking and just stood quietly for a moment. It was true my adoptive parents couldn't and wouldn't ever let me live this kind of life out in America.

"I 100% get that, but why did you parents give you up for adoption in the first place? If you were just going to come back with them? Sorry if that seems rude, I'm just curious and we've known each other long enough."

I was taken back by the comment, mainly because I had no answer to it and had been thinking about asking them but never having the right time. And I know my siblings wouldn't give me a straight answer. So there we stood while I stared blankly behind her, never at her and she stood awaiting my answer that I didn't have. It was a truly intimate awkwardness. I figured we stood in silence long enough so I said,

"Honestly Kat, I don't really know the true answer to that, I never thought to ask, because it never really mattered to me."

She didn't seem pleased with that answer but neither was I, so we starting walking again and I saw Sergio's car .

"Sorry to ask, I'll... um... see you tomorrow."

She said while jogging towards her mom's car. I was a little put off by the whole conversation. I guess I was going to spend these couple weeks soul searcher because for the first time in a long time I was a little bit lost with everything. Sergio beeped the horn, making me jump into a little jog over to him. I must have seemed off or something because he kept telling me I looked sick. When we got home he told Pilar that I was off and she just summed it up as a hard practice and emotionally drained because Luca had left. She was kind of right, but yeah I missed Luca but I was really weirded out with myself about my parents. Sergio went to bed and put SJ to sleep, and I went to my room to chill out alone. I heard a light knock on the door. Soon after Pilar came in with so hot chocolate and marshmallows.

"Now I know something is up sweet heart so lets talk about it so we can try to fix it?"

She said in a sweet and motherly tone. I sighed knowing she would catch on to me.

"I also know that Luca is not the root cause of this. So lets talk, you know that anything you tell me stay in-between us and I will do everything in my power to help you."

She said put a few marshmallows in my hot coco and handing it me.

"I'm all weird because when practice was over Katia asked me why I came here and more importantly why my parents gave me up in the first place."

I said looking down and trying to avoid eye contact all together.

"That would make more sense, she honestly shouldn't have asked those but it's going to be okay Isa, you I can drive you to Seville tomorrow if you really want answers."

She said places her hand on my shoulder; I looked up at her and gave her a half smile.

"I would really like that."

I said quietly, she smiled and said,

"Perfect it's a date! We will drive there and stay a few days with them. Sergio will hold down the fort here, and take care of SJ."

She beamed, she always knew how to make things right, that's why I think she's a wonderful mother.

"Now Isa you have to go bed, we'll pack you up in the morning and head out.

Good night sweetie."

She said kissed my forehead.

"Okay sounds good, good night P, thank you..."

I said hugging her. She was really a huge part in my life and without her I don't know where I would be.
