Karina's Point of View~

I smack my mouth because of the nasty taste in it. Ugh, I hate morning breath, always have. I click my home button on my phone and see that it is 12:39 in the afternoon. Damn, was I really that tired? I stretch and my leg does this shaky thing which I never really meant for it to happen, but it just did. I sit up and rub my face and I feel something cold. Really cold. I throw my hand away from my face and look at it, after waking up and staring at the silver ice cold thing wrapped around my finger, I realize that yesterday was the day I made a promise to Ruben. Yesterday was the day he gave me this ring. Yesterday was the day I said "I love you" to Ruben... yesterday was the day he told me he loved me. I blush and remember every little detail about yesterday. But then guess who pops in my head?? Hector's ass. Thanks for ruining shit Hector. 

I get up and go to my bathroom which I am very grateful of, and start a nice warm shower. I undress and yank the towel of the top shelf in my closet and proceed to my bathroom...

I don't know why, but I take really long showers, about 45-50 minutes. Maybe I'm just trying to pass the time since the house is practically dead. I get out the shower and since it's Saturday, Ima scrub it out. I grab some sweats and an oversized "Avengers" shirt. After getting dressed, I hear a growling noise. Ugh, I'm hungry, must eat. 

By now it was 1:45 and I was STARVING. I jog down the stairs and turn the TV on just so the house can feel alive for a change. I walk to the kitchen and look in the cabinets and find corn pops. My favorite. Ruben likes corn pops too. I swear we're perfect for each other. Or at least I think we are. I pour me a bowl and sit on the couch feeling like a bad ass since we're only supposed to eat in the kitchen but since no one was here, I get to do whatever I want. I scan through the channels trying to find something decent to watch when my phone vibrates. I look down at it and it says "Mom". I sigh and answer like the good girl I'm supposed to be. 

"Yes?"

"Don't yes me. Show some respect for the woman who gave you birth. Anyways, the fashion show is being re schedule to Thursday so I'll be home Saturday."

"Big shocker"

"Sorry honey, I know you're always by yourself and I'm trying my best to be there. But I left my credit card for you in my room on my dresser. This is for food and necessaries only."

"Kay"

"Love you"

"Kay" and then I hung up. Don't tell me you love me, prove it.
