January 13th

Leilani

My shift just ended, Oscars taking me home today.
I walked out of the taco shop and Lexi was just leaving. Oscar looked flustered.

"Hey baby!" I smiled as I walked up to him.
"Everything good with Lexi and Los Santos?" I asked. He seemed distracted.
He shook his head. "Yeah baby." He said finally smiling. I tried to kiss him and he pulled away.

"What's wrong?" I asked.
He shook his head.
"I gotta wash my mouth out, I had to taste cocaine today you don't want that in your mouth." He started rambling it was weird.

"Are you kinda high?" I asked.
He nodded his head, he was shaking a bit.
"I can drive?" I said as I rubbed his face.
"You should drink water."

He nodded and got into the passenger seat.
"I don't want you hanging out with Lexi." He said.
I laughed. "Why baby?"
"She's a chola, and I don't want you hanging with girls like that." He shrugged.

"I hang out with Angel and Hector and you're fine with it." I said.

"Hector I'm still not sure about." He said.
I started laughing.
"Just promise me you'll steer clear, the girls kinda crazy." He said.

I nodded, "if she gets weird I'll stop hanging out with her." I said laughing.

He seemed really quiet.
"Wanna sleep over?" I asked.
He nodded as he got out of the car.

Something was off but I couldn't figure it out.
Cesar was here again.
The Diaz boys basically live here.
The boys all said hi.
Mom was working a double at the hospital.

Gazzy ran up to Oscar again.
"I'll be back papito, I gotta shower." He said as he rushed to the bathroom.

"Is oscar sick?" Gazzy asked as he sat at the kitchen table. "No baby why?" I asked as i passed out the food I brought home from work.

"He seems sad." Gazzy said as he ate his taco.
"Yeah, He's usually more happy than he was today and he never turns down a hug from Gazzy." Gio said as he ate his food too.

Cesar didn't say anything.
"Why are you so quiet?" I asked nudging him.
"No reason monse problems I guess." He said.
I frowned, I talked to monse today she said they were fine. She actually gushed about how great things are between them.

"What's wrong with my man?" I asked Cesar sternly.
"I don't know anything!" He said as he ate.
"Cesar stop lying." I said getting in his face.

"He's stressed out about Lexi." He said.
He looked scared when he blurted it out.
I was confused.
"What's wrong with Lexi?" I asked.
Cesar went pale.

"Tell me." I said softly.

"Lexi killed Latrelle and Oscar is just paranoid she's gonna get killed by the Prophets or they're gonna retaliate." He said then took a breath.
Oh my poor baby.
That's why he's been so tense.

I didn't say anything back.
I went straight to the bathroom.
When i opened it Oscar was in the shower spitting out water.
"Cocaine is that bad?" I laughed as I shut the door and locked it.
He jumped when he heard me.
