"Never mind, just don't tell anyone." He just shrugs and walks out.

I sigh.

Only about 5 more days till I'm 13! July 16!

Apparently here on birthdays the dorm advisors take you some place special.

I shrug and place my guitar back on the stand in the corner of the room and go to lock the door when a boy about my age runs in.

He doesn't say a word, just runs into my closet and makes a shushing motion with his finger to me

He doesn't say a word, just runs into my closet and makes a shushing motion with his finger to me. I look for the person he's hiding from and then hear a deep, accented voice. Spanish?

"Jośe, come out. NOW!" The voice yells. I hear the voice going into different rooms in the hallway until it arrives in front of my room. It was a boy, about 17.

"Did you see my brother?"

"Did you see my brother?"

"Uhh n-no."

"Uh-huh. Bebita, (baby girl) we both know you're lying." I cringe at the nickname.

"I have no idea."

"Voy a matarlo." (I'm going to kill him.) He mumbles under his breath and exits the room.

"You can come out."

"Gracias Princesa, I'm por siempre en su deuda." (Thank you princess, I'm forever in your debt.) He thanks me.

"No problem."

"Yo soy Jose." (I'm José)I realize he must not know much English and remember my moms friend teaching me a bit of Spanish.

"Mi nombre es Kase." (My name is Kase.) I introduce. He smiles.

"Ese era mi hermano mayor Santiago." (That was my older brother Santiago)

"¿Por qué estaba tan enojado?"(Why was he so mad?)

"Robé su controlador PS4."
(I stole his PS4 controller.)
