"Carne!"
Wilfredo yelled from his room as i asked him what he wanted from the taqueria.

"Ill be back in a few then!" I grabbed my keys and walked out. It was a beautiful day, the sun was out, kids were playing soccer. Im just glad to be back home. Soccer camp was fun but i wanted to be home, hangout with boys. Plus im super tired, i came home yesterday at 5 am. I walked about 3 blocks to the taqueria. I opened the door and smelled the fresh, greasy food on the grill, the cold air coming from the air conditioner.

"Aye, que bonita!" I smiled at the girl.

"Hola Jacky." I leaned against the counter top.

"Hows your brother?" Jacky and Wilfredo have been dating for a while. Shes a sweet girl but she likes to talk, a lot.

"Hes good." She pulled out her paper.

"What you want?"

"2 tacos of carne asada and a coke cola bottle."

"To go?" I nodded. I gave her the cash and waited. The bell rang when the door opened. "Oh hell, its these ninos again!" Jacky yelled to the crew. I turned around. 4 boys sat down on a table and looked at me. "Dont bother, we tried taking them out of here."

"They just need is a big wack in the head." Jacky handed me my food and i walked towards the door.

"Hey mamacita!" They whistled. I sighed and left. I walked another 3 blocks home. Older men whistled and cat called me. Which was disgusting. I made it home, i saw Mario packing boxes in his car.

"Hey! Mario!" I waved at him.

"Hey, you!" We hugged. "How was, uh soccer camp?"

"Mmm,it was okay. Mildly life changing." Mario looked up and down.

"I can see that." I took the hint why and I covered my chest.

"You can? How?" I asked him, knowing the answer.

"You just Look," Marios eyes fell down, and then looked at my eyes.

"I got contacts now."

"Yeah thats why you look different." He chuckled. "I probably have to go before traffic hits." He pointed down the road.

"No prob. Good luck at Cal." I gave him another hug.

"Thanks." I got onto the sidewalk and Mario was about to get into his car. "And you, keep an eye on Ruby? Don't know what that kid's gonna do without me."
