The Protector

Welcome to Maryland

Moonya POV

We got to Maryland safe and sound, thank God we did. Sal said, "Hey Moonya we made it to Maryland in one piece." I said, "I know, I hope they don't follow us here." Hector said, "I blasted them dudes away, they shouldn't be following us any more. If they did, they would have been blown up on the freeway." Naomi said, "Hector, even though you got them to back off, they could still track us." Hector said, "How?" Naomi said, "Its easy, simply shoot a tracking device on the car and using some sort of computer map, they'll find us." Andrew said, "We should check the car to make sure that its not on the car, Sal." 

Sal said, "Alright, homie, I got you. We should stop somewhere first to eat, I'm hungry. There's like a giant hole in my stomach." Naomi said, "Hey, at least you lost a few pounds." I chuckled at that one. Sal said, "Hold on, how do you know my weight?" Naomi said, "Well Sal, Puerto Rican boys are the ones that are most liked by girls." Sal said, "What does that have to do with anything?" Naom said, "A lot, look at it like this, with a skinny body, muscles, what most people say "Rock-hard-abs", and that Vegeta hair style, all the girls will come to you. Then when you get older, you'll look like Drake but young." Sal said, "Drake is young, and your going to far with that, homie." I said, "Sal, you'll be attractive to girls." Naomi said, "Trust me Sal, I know what I'm talking about." Sal said, "Well, I don't, how am I gonna look like Drake?" Naomi said, "Easy, let a beard grow, but not too much or you'll be like Osama Bin Laden in a Puerto Rican style."

I burst out laughing, Naomi was just tearing Sal up big time, Sal said, "Osama Bin Laden is dead now, who would want to look like him anyway?" Naomi said, "My uncle Fronzo, he was growing a beard, but his beard made him look like Osama Bin Laden." I said, "Is he Puerto Rican?" Naomi said, "Yeah, my dad's friends look like terrorist attackers." I laugh so hard I couldn't breathe. Sal said, "Now I'm hungry even more, lets go eat something before I become too skinny." 

We stop at a McDonald's and order our food, then we when driving again eating. I should call my grandmother and let her know I'm here to see here. Naomi said, "Call your grandmother Moonya, we don't have a hotel to stay at nor the money to pay for two rooms." I said, "I was just thinking that, Naomi." I called my grandmother, when she answered, we talked for a long time. Then she told me that we can stay over her house for the night. As soon as she said that, we both hung up the phone, I said, "My grandmother said we can stay at her place for the night." Naomi said, "Yay!! I hope her place is big like a masion." I said, "It close to a masion, but its a regular house."

We got to my grandmother's house, she was standing by the door waiting for us. When we got out, she hold the door welcoming us. My grandmother said, "Welcome children, hello Moonya." I said, "Hi, grandma." My grandmother said, "Its been a long time since our trip, you have grown into a fine young lady." I smile and said, "Thank you grandma." My grandmother said, "Where are your parents?"

I struggled to tell her what happen to them over the years and what I went through. However I manage to tell her anyway, "They're...dead." My grandmother said, "They're...dead? How can this be? What happened? Who's taking care of you?" I said, "Grandma, calm down, I'll tell in the house." My grandmother said, "We'll talk when everyone is sleep, but for now, welcome to Maryland."

Yeah, this has been a warm welcome, a bad one.
