Peligroso Amor -Oscar Díaz-

•18•

Let me tell you about my birthday. My eighteenth birthday was a eventful. I could say it was the most interesting birthday I had.

July 27. It was my fucking birthday, well it was Ángel's birthday too. I was so excited my mom let us throw a party and I was thrilled. Ángel had his whole class invited and I wasn't mad about it because I'll talk to anyone. Some people of my class were invited too. Diego and Jasmine were coming too. I invited the crew but only Cesar and Monse could come. Ruby and Jamal were on a vacation trip.

I woke up to my mom kissing my cheek. She rubbed my back gently as she kept kissing my cheek.

"Wake up princesa. Happy birthday." She whispered and I smiled opening my eyes. I sat up and she hugged me tightly.

"Go get ready for your day princesa." She added breaking the hug and I nodded walking to my closet.

I grabbed a tube top and a pair of shorts, placed it on the bed and made my way to the bathroom with my bathrobe.

I was sitting on my vanity doing my makeup when Ángel walked in.

"You smell good." I said and Ángel smiled. "Happy birthday papito."

"Happy birthday princesa hermosa." He said placing his arms around me.

"Mami is making her special breakfast for both of us." He added and I smiled.

Ángel laid on my bed while I finish doing my makeup.

'You don't even bother tryna keep a smile. Let me take your bags, boy, let me try we might be alright. Perfect ain't coming, but we'll be alright'

"You just gotta, just gotta love me. Don't let 'good-byes' come too easy, love me. Just let me know that you need me, love me. I'll teach you how to love me." I sang along moving side to side as I sprayed the setting spray.

"Done!" I exclaimed standing up. Ángel engulfed me in a hug. I returned it swaying us side to side.

"Happy birthday again princesa" he congratulated again kissing my cheek.

After having breakfast Jasmine and Diego appeared with a small cake. They sang happy birthday and gave me gifts.

All three of us went to Target to buy the stuff for the party. Cups, ice, soda,chips etcetera. Ángel said he had the alcohol situation taken care of. I wasn't going to bother asking what it meant.

"Where's Catalina?" I heard Ángel asked as I pushed the cart down the baby clothing aisle.

"I'm here!" I exclaimed loud enough for him to hear.

"What are you doing?" Ángel asked and Jasmine smirked.

"Don't you know?" Jasmine asked picking up a baby dress.
