Luciana// Zayn Malik

introduction/cast

"Zayn, please go next door and tell our neighbor to turn down that damn music." My wife says trying to coo the fussy two year old to sleep.

I get up from working at the dining room table and head next door to the loud music playing. I've haven't officially met my neighbors yet so this is going to be an awkward first impression.

I knock on the red door and now loud rap music is heard inside. I try knocking again and the music stops and there's a dog starting to bark.

"Cállate chucho!" I hear a girl yell from inside and the dog stops barking.

The red door opens and there is my neighbor. She's wearing a black tank top that barely covers her chest and shorts that are too short, her thick thighs are peaking out for me to see.

"Can I help you?" She asks me and I snap back to reality about why I came over here.

"I'm your neighbor, Zayn Malik. I moved in yesterday but that doesn't matter. My wife is trying to get our son to go to sleep, so if you could keep your music down that would be nice." I ask politely to the young teenage girl right in front of me that looks way older than her age.

"Oh yeah, sorry bout that." She says sympathetically but with a heavy Mexican accent present.

"I like your pit bull. " I say complementing the big gray dog behind her.

"Thank you. I raised him from a puppy. His name is chucho." She says and calls him over as I bend down to pet him and he becomes tame to my touch.

"You said that you just moved here?" She asks and I look up and nod at her.

"Well tomorrow my parents are coming back from Mexico and we're going to have a party and you should come, if you want." She says and I stand back up and think about the offer and agree before consulting with my wife.

"Great. You can bring your own beer and stuff but I'm doing all the cooking right now. It starts at 6." She says and motions to the kitchen, probably why the music was loud. She was busy.

"Thank you..." I say and think of a name she didn't give me yet.

"Luciana Martinez." She says and it sounds so nice. "I'll keep the music down but you have a good day, Zayn." She says and closes the red door slowly.

I walk through the grass back to my house next door and Presley is asleep along with Gigi. I sit back at the table and think about what to wear tomorrow.
