After the meeting at Burger Ben, the Mijos boys took a relaxing day. They went off to to their to do their usual things. Chaz went to the corner store to get him some jawbreakers, while the boys set up a game table. Albert feels he's part of the crew now, so he helped out. The Mijos Boys like having Albert around, because he's got style. Reggie pulls out his boom box and plays some hip-hop music.
Chaz came back with a bagful of candy, and he actually shares this time. Esteban took out a deck of cards, and set the game up. Albert doesn't want to intervene, so he wanders off to the street. Albert sees Selena running up to him.
Selena: Hey Albert, how are you?
Albert: I'm fine. Where's Hector and Bennie?
Selena: I think they're at their garage
Albert: So, what do you want?
Selena: (nervously) I.... was wondering if you want to go out with me?
Albert: Like a date?
Selena: Yeah, I won't mind if you decline.
Albert: (thinks for a minute) Sure!
Selena: (gasps) For real?
Albert: Yeah, it could be fun! See ya tonight
(When Albert left, Selena jumped with glee, and did her happy dance).
Selena: I'm so happy, I gotta tell Angela about it, and find something cute to wear.
(Back at Burger Ben)
Andres was still stunned about the situation, as he still there frozen. Andres's heart beating really loud! Penny looking at Maria all nervous like, but Maria wasn't looking a least upset!
Maria: It's seem like you and Penny were getting along, otherwise I wouldn't caught you hugging.
Penny: Sorry Maria, I got caught up in the moment, I'll just leave.
(Penny left the restaurant, leaving Andres all red in the face)
Maria: So Dre, did you see me at the news?
Andres: Yes, you were very good! I'm sorry you have to see that!
Maria: Don't worry about, I'm just glad to see you guys getting along.
Andres: Penny is just a....friend!
Maria: More like friends with benefits.
Andres: (sighs) What can I do for you?
Maria: Nothing, I only came here because I was hungry. So, where your crew?
Andres: (shrugs) They're out somewhere.
Maria: Interesting, I heard you have to come up with a lot of money for Wizard Kelly, is that true?
Andres: Yes....
Maria: Well, judging from what we went through for couple days, we made a little progress.
Andres: I hoping the carnival would make us a lot of money.
Maria: I think you're going to need a little more than a carnival
Andres: I couldn't think of anything else!
Maria: Wasn't your friends just talking about concerts?
Andres: Yeah......
Maria: That's a good start.
Andres: (changing the subject) Do you want me to buy you lunch, or something?
Maria: (teasing) My Andres, I thought you'll never ask! Yes please!
