Caballeros

Home is where the heart is (Edited)

The plane is about to take off and I pop two Dramamines to knock me out. Flying makes me so anxious so why no knock myself out so I don't have to worry? I am glad that I don't have someone sitting next to me so I can stretch out. The flight seems pretty empty I think it's because of the early hour. I send a group text to my crazy friends.

Me: Ya'll are a bunch of assholes LMAO

Guerro: ROTFL I told ya that you would see what I meant.

Changs: Go find that Bull Rider Cochina.

Narizon: Yeah and what did you say? You're gonna ride him all night long!? Bahahahahah.

Me: Alright STFU, Call ya'll later Love U.

I drift off to sleep, my headache is now a dull throb. As I fall asleep I think of all my worries. I worry about not a great teacher like mama. I worry that I will be lonely and not make friends like the ones I have back in California. I feel a hand touch my shoulder after I think is a few minutes later. I force myself to open my eyes and see the flight attendant. She smiles kindly at me. I smile back at her and try get my sleepy eyes to focus on her fully.

"We have landed my dear."

"What, really! Damn I missed the snack," I laugh causing her to chuckle.

I go and get my luggage once I have my things I head to the passenger pick up area. I see a familiar sight, my daddy's pickup truck but I do not see my dad. I see The Gooch's lover boy, my cousin Santiago. He is a pretty big guy and looks rather intimidating to those who do not know him. He is over two hundred pounds and his neck is gigantic. His black t-shirt is tight on his massive arms that looks like tree trunks. He is face never gives anything away so everyone thinks he is always mad. To me he is a huge teddy bear. I run over and hug him tightly; I have missed my family so much.

"Hey Prima! How was your flight?"

"Not sure, I was passed out the whole time."

"Damn guess ya had a great time last night. Are you cruda today?"

"It was fun! I was hungover earlier this morning but I'm good now." I laugh.

"Ready Chica?"

"Yeah, I am. Hey, where is my dad?" I ask getting into the truck.

"There was an issue with Goliath's cage. So he had to go to Houston to get a new one," He says driving down the highway.

"Who or what is a Goliath?"

"It's Joaquin's bull."

"Who is Joaquin?"

"Oh shit my bad, you haven't been around, sorry. He is a young big shot Bull Rider in the state of Texas. He is actually helping your dad run the ranch. Maybe you'll meet him, he's not like us knuckleheads though. He keeps to himself and is super quiet."

"Wow, a Bull Rider." I say. I begin to giggle thinking about the video Guerro sent me.
