Shermer High School

Shermer, Illinois 60062


I saw the bitch herself Claire get out of her father's BMW. That spoiled brat!

I saw Brian my best friend get out of his mother's car. He looked tired. He's so damn sweet!

I saw Andrew the wrestler get out of his father's jeep. Both him and Claire think they're better than everybody else.

I saw John the bad boy walk across the road to school. A car slammed it's brakes right in front of John.

"Stupid!" My brother said in English.

"Which one?"

"Both of them."

I saw Allison the goth weird girl get out of that car. When she was about to say good bye to the driver in the car, it drove away! Wow! Allison is also my best friend. 

Last but not least, me. My name is Maria Moreno. I'm known as the chola. A chola is a female of Mexican and Native American decent, commonly roam around East LA. I was born in East LA but my parents who were illegal immigrants got deported back to Mexico. Me and my older brother Diego were born American citizens. Diego is also my legal guardian since he's over eighteen, he just turned twenty two.

"Be good ok? I don't want you getting more detentions than you already have."

"Whatever."

"Listen, I know you're upset about what happened last Thursday. You did the right thing but the principal's just an asshole."

"They don't call him Dick for nothing."

Diego smiled his movie star smile.

"Have a good day ok?"

"Ok. Adios!"

"Adios!"

As soon as I got out of the car, Diego stopped me.

"Te amo!"

Translation: I love you!

"Yo tambien te amo!"

Translation: I love you too!

He smiled again as he drove away.

I walked into the library and sat behind Brian. He smiled a soon as he saw me.

"Hola Brian!"

"Hey."

"What are you doing here in detention?"

"Can we talk about it later?"

"I guess so. Is your mother so mad at you that she's making you study at detention?"

"How'd you guess?"

"I noticed you from Diego's car you were tired or frustrated."

"Yeah?"

"Hmm hmm. I could give them a talkin to, if you know what I mean."

I cuffed my fist into the palm of my other hand.

"No, that won't be necessary. How is Diego anyways?"

"He's great. He got the job I told you last week he was being interviewed for, that job at a convenience store in town."

"Tell him I said congrats."

"I will."

We saw John walk in the library, he walked towards Brian, he wanted Brian to move. Brian moved the next table over and that was when Allison walked in and sat in the back table behind Brian. She smiled and waved at me, I did the same. I turned around to see John looking at me, he smirked and winked.

"Do you do that to every girl you see, cabron?"

Cabron is the Spanish word for dumbass, asshole, bastard, etc.

"Pretty much."

He turned around and propped his feet on the chair next to him.

Vernon walked in at that moment.
