Cesar returned late that night, as monse sat in bed with her arms crossed
He could see her expression "I'm sorry I'm late" he kissed her
"I dont care" she bit back
He was confused "um...did I do something wrong?" He asked
"I don't know...DID you?" She turned away from him
"Monse what happened?" He turned her back around
"Ruby's new girlfriend" she finger quoted "that's what happened"
Cesar ran his hand through his hair Slowly
"who?"
"Olivia Lopez?" She sarcastically spoke
Cesar's eyes went wide
"Olivia Lopez? As in Marco Lopez? The prophet leaders daughter?" He asked frantically
"The WHAT?" She pushed Cesar away, "that explains so much, when I mentioned you, she acted totally strange" Monse walked around her room
"Monse you can't hang around her, they think I killed latrelle too, if they see your associated with me they will go after you, or worse" Cesar grabbed her arm
Monse stayed quiet for a moment "what about ruby And Jamal?" She asked
"Let them be, they aren't in as deep or know as much as you" Cesar spoke
"In as DEEP?" Monse barked
"Cesar this isn't some game, if I can't hang out with certain people, or I have to avoid things because of some lie you made up to get repped by your brother and his friends, than I...i don't know. This is too much stress!" She pulled away from his grasp

"Monse please, I'm trying"
Cesar whispered
"Don't talk...I don't want to hear it! The stress you've given me these past few weeks have been deadly! I stay up at night, wondering if your ok, or if the Santos finally caught up in your act" she yelled
"I'm not safe until you are! I can't bring a kid into this life, i refuse to..."
"Monse what are you saying?"
Cesar asks
"I was thinking, and maybe we need to stay at my moms house" she quietly spoke
"Monse we cant, you barley know this women, she LEFT you!!" Cesar spoke
"I know that she lives in Brentwood, with her new husband and 2 kids, I viewed her Facebook....maybe she's changed?" Monse looked down "we'd be safe there," she added
"I can't just pack everything up and leave" Cesar responded
"So your choosing the Santos over me?"
"No, I'm just saying we shouldn't move around to much...things might get really serious if Olivia tells her dad she's come in contact with me. "What if she finds out I live here?" He asked
Monse bites he lip "she already knows" she spoke quietly
He stood up and swiped his hands down his face "Monse...your not safe here anymore" he grabbed her shoulder
"No...you aren't safe here anymore. I don't want anything to do with this, stop pulling me into this gang shit" she yanked him away
"Please don't do this" he whispered
"Don't talk to me" Monse sat down to her bed and pulled the covers over her
"Can we please talk?" He asked
She was quiet
He stood up and grabbed his bag
Monse stared at the wall, she heard the window shut and immediately started crying "I can't do this" she put her hands over her face and laid on her back
she stayed hysterical for most of night, until crying herself to sleep at 4 am

When morning came, Monse stayed in bed, she had no energy to get up to do homeschool or even get breakfast.
Monty walked in
"Hey im heading out to the store, do you need anything?"
She shook her head "I'm good"
"You ok?" He asked
"I'm fine..." she covered herself back up into the covers
Monty looked at his daughter for a few moments, he noticed Cesar didn't stay the night, but she was hurting and he wasn't going to bring it up.

Monse moves her head up from her moist pillow, filled from tears. She grabbed her phone to see 13 missed calls from Cesar. She turned off the phone and put it back down. Today wasn't a day to care.

School got out and Cesar contemplated going over to Monses, he walked past her house and saw her dads car was missing
"I just wanna check on her" he thought to himself, walking up to her window, peeking in. He saw Monse laying in bed watching tv. She turned her head as he pulled away quickly
Monse stood up and put down the shades on her window, then returned back to bed
Cesar sighed, he thought she would at least talk to him. He didn't know how many more nights he could spend at the Santos house, it wasn't gonna be too long before they gave him another life risking task.
