Mi Santo § Oscar Diaz

EIGHT

Paulina's POV

"Oh My God. I'm late..." I whispered, Lydia helped me up.

"Mija.." She trailed and tears formed in my eyes, I grabbed the dress going back into the dressing room. I took off the dress putting on my clothes. I walked back out of the dressing room grabbing my purse and Carlitos.

"I-I have to go," I said Lydia and the rest of the girls gave me a look and I shook my head taking Carlitos in my arms.

"I'm fine really.. I just need to go," I said walking out of the bridal shop. I strapped Carlitos into my car and drove to the nearest CVS. I quickly got off with Carlitos going into the Women's section. I grabbed four pregnancy tests and paid for them at the cashier. I rushed home and set Carlitos down in his play pin upstairs.

I sat there by myself anxiously waiting for the results, I put the box on top of the test preventing me from seeing. Once my timer went off, I shakily took off the box.

"Pregnant." The box said, I sobbed with my face in my hands.

"I'm pregnant," I sobbed holding the test in my hands.

"Oh Mija," I heard as warm arms embraced me in a hug. I sobbed harder holding onto Lydia. She rocked me kissing my head as I cried. Don't get me wrong of course I want to have more children, But right now was not the best time. I don't even know if Oscar wants to have children, I don't even know how he will react. If Ricardo finds me and finds out I had another child with another man, There is no telling what he could do.

Oscar's POV

"What's this all about homes," I said with a cigarette in my mouth. Smokey, Sad Eyes and Julio sitting across from me with worried expressions.

"Listen Spooky We love you like a brother and we always want to look out for you.."

"Just spit it up.. I want to get home to my lady," I said throwing my coverage butt on the floor.

"Not after this you won't," Smokey said and I furrowed my eyebrows looking at them.

"She's not who you think she is Mano," He said handing me a paper.

"Suspected Of Kidnap and Second degree Murder...Paulina Claudio." I said reading off of the paper.

"That's not it. She's married.. Spooky she's married to a cop," They said showing me the documents. I stared at them my anger building up inside, she lied to me. I got up throwing the closer across the room. I grabbed my keys making my way to my Impala.

"Lydia promise me.. Promise me you will not say anything," I cried taking her hands in mine.

"Mija you need to tell him he has the right to know," She stared and I shook my head.

"I know he does.. But you don't understand Lydia.." I trailed digging through my drawer. I pulled out all the threats I've received showing her.
