~Once~

I get off the car and the taxi guy put my bags near my car. Thank you I say paying him and he smiles and leaves.  I leave my bags near my car and walk inside. I dont see anyone so I put my Rose's on the table.

Hello I'm home I yell. No answer I sign and read that mom went with Ruby's mom somewere she also asked if  Antonio can do tias basement I'll do it I whispered.  I go outside and see Jamal and ruby fighting I laugh.

Sweet I love you to cata. Can yall help me take my bag. They nod taking my bags inside. So how was your Halloween I asked them.  It was ok Just went to a party in Brentwood. Nice how was it I ask as I walk upstairs.  Not good spooky had to show up because some kids threw eggs at us so spooky scared then into giving us a lot of candy.

I go change into some black pants and a black tight shirt I grab my loud ass ear phones,my phone and head put. Let's go I say.

I walk inside and see jasmin comes out of the room. Hey what you doing near Ruby's door I ask. Oh hey girl I saw your dances damn girl you got moves we should do a dance together she says. I smile yea we should I say nicely. I say excuse me and walk into Ruby's room.

I put my music on loud so I cant hear shit. I turn on 2 lamps so there could be light and start to clean.
I sweep and clean out the little fridge there. I dust everything. I forgot trash bags so I go upstairs singing along with my song.

Tell me again, that well be lovers and friends , tell me again I sing along.
Sometime I wanna be your lover sometimes I wanna be your friend.

I dance along and grab a trashbag and head back to the basement not looking who Is here.

I was down there with a big ass bag of trash and 1 bag of dirty cloths then the lights turned off.

Fuck I yell taking out my earphones and putting my phone in my pockets. I was going to walk to the front when someone put a hand on my mouth and grabed me in the restroom.

They closed the door and I panicked so I elbowed them in the stomach.  They growled in pain I turn around and see oscar standing there. Damn muneca I just wanted to talk to you. Oh I'm sorry oscar you shouldn't have scared me like that.

I jump on the sink and look as he gets up. There only a little light coming in from the restroom window.  So what you wanna talk about I ask. He pulls out his phone and shows me a video of me and danny dancing and I smile.
