Santos Central

Chapter 4

[Phone rings]

"What do you want?" I said. I don't understand why Jamal thinks late night calls are okay when I'm trying to get my beauty rest.

"So what exactly did you see when you walked in on Cesar and Jasmine?" He said.

"I told you already, Cesar was putting back on his pants and Jessica was trying to find her clothes. Why do you care?"

"He doesn't but I do!"

I heard Monse yell back into the phone. I shouldn't have been surprised, I knew Jamal was going to slip up but not this soon.

I was too tired to deal with all of this so I just told them we can meet up tomorrow at my house and talk about everything.

"Fine! But no one be late."

The phone made a click noise and soon there was nothing else to be heard. I need to get my rest, because for some reason I fell as though some crazy shit is going to happen tomorrow.

Monse POV:

Jamal and I were on our way to Ruby's when I seen Cesar sitting outside with everyone. So I decided to go talk to him myself.

I can see Jamal trying his hardest to persuade me not to go but it wasn't working.

"Okay! Don't worry girl! I got ya back from right here!" I laughed and continued walking across the street.

(Italics-Cesar, Regular Bold-Monse)

I need to talk to you. I stood in front of Cesar crossing my arms.

I'm listening? He sat back on the couch and crossed his arms waiting for me to talk.

Privately? somewhere away from everyone.

Yeah we can go inside. But if you want to sit on my face, you got to put that mouth on pause so I can concentrate.

I stood there in total shock. I can't believe he just said that to me. Oscar gave him a pound and everyone else started to laugh. I stormed off pissed as hell.

"Sit on my face? Who says that?"

"Chairs that can talk. And buttholes!" Said Jamal as he was throwing himself on the grass and rolling around.

"Listen from the sound of it Jessica didn't care that you and Cesar was together." Ruby said trying to fix the dress Abuelita was making him wear.

"Well, how did she say it?"

"You know what I know. I guess she said it only because you weren't there."

"I'm gonna kick her ass!" I said storming off towards Cesar's house.

"Monse! Monse! Shit, this is not gonna end well."

I heard Ruby calling me but I this point I was heated.

Jessica's POV:

I was in my room watching tv, when I hear yelling from outside. I peeked through my blinds to figure out what the commotion was.

"Oh shit!"

I seen Monse yelling at Cesar, man did she look pissed. I threw my hair into a pony tail, put on my sneakers and headed outside.

I walked outside pretending to be shocked at what was going on. "Can y'all keep it down I'm trying to relax?"

Then everything went quiet. I swear it was like we were in a movie or something. Monse stoped and looked at me.

Her face was red, her fist was balled up, and I felt her staring into my soul. I went to go say something but next thing I knew I was on the ground.

"You little bitch!" She yelled, as she kept trying to hit me in my face.

"This bitch is crazy. Get off of me!"

I put my arms up blocking her fist from hitting my face. I rolled us over to where I was on top and she was under me.

"Your messing with the wrong girl!"

The boys started barking and oohing, as me and her continued to fight.

"Damn, these hyna's are wild." Spooky said to my brother while laughing.

After a while Cesar grabbed me and pulled me off of her. Jamal and Ruby came grabbing Monse.

"See this is why we didn't want to tell you cause your going crazy!" Jamal said while trying to hold her back.

"I'm crazy? I was just trying to keep our crew together and now look at it!"

Finally, Cesar let me go. I dusted my self off and fixed my hair. I can tell he was upset about everything that just happened. I mean I would be too, but he doesn't need her.

The night was coming to an end. After Monse was done throwing her tantrum, and telling Cesar to go fuck off. Everyone left and went inside but Cesar.

I was gonna stay and talk to him but he seemed as if he just needed time to himself. So I went up stairs took and shower and went off to sleep.
