Mexico Has Splinters

Part 3

Morgen in the photo

5 days later...

As I loaded the small carry-on bags into the car, I looked back and my mother was crying. She was a beautiful woman who stood at 5'5, long dark brown hair with strong hazel eyes.

If I wanted anything from my mother, it would be her eyes and long hair.

"What's wrong Ma?" I questioned worriedly.

"Nothing is wrong physically, but emotionally I'm going to miss your presence. You know you're my girl, I won't be able to talk with you everyday and that's gonna make me melancholy. I'll get over it though." she said sweetly as she wiped her tears away.

"Ma let me tell you something, you have NOTHING to worry about, I will be in great hands as well as calling and checking on you cause I know these two knuckleheads won't do it. And another thing, I'm coming back to you, always."

My mother tried to wipe the imminent tears away but to no avail. I held onto her as tight as I could. We stayed like that for 10 minutes before pulling away from each other and smiling.

"I'll miss you like crazy kid. Wong Tong, Wong tong." In our jacked up LingLing voices. Our relationship is crazy but we love each other either way.

The plane ride was approximately 5 hours and 3 minutes. It felt like a good time to catch up on my writing.

I wanna love you naturally
I wanna hold you, happily
I want to be so filled with joy that my behind won't know what to do with myself.
Of all the things I want most
I want you to be happy too,
I want you to boast.
Be excited about waking up in the morning just to say good morning

"Alright ladies and gentlemen we are approaching our destination in Mexico City, please fasten your seatbelts and close any electronic devices. Thank you." The pilot says over the intercom.

I quickly fastened my seatbelt as I was sacred out of my mind. I prayed to God that no snakes were on this plane. I feel that would be a lonely way to die; on a plane with strangers and snakes.

Our tour guide was a short brunette who was very beautiful.

"¡Bienvenido's a Beautiful Mexico!

I am your tour guide, Jane Gloriana Villanueva, and welcome to Mexico City! This winter is filled with fun and exciting things for us to do and I cannot wait! So we're going to go ahead and introduce yourself and/or a fact about you or why you chose to come to Mexíco."

Ugh I'd rather jump off a cliff than introduce myself to these people. The one thing I hate is friendly people. Especially if we are dating. Terell knew what was up when he started dating me. Period.

After the extremely agonizing introductions we finally made it to the hotel for check in. As soon as we got the keys I went straight up to our room , I didn't even wanna wait for Morgen.

The Hotel Geneve, is more beautiful in person and the landmarks! We were on the top floor of the hotel with an amazing view. I just wish they had a balcony, so I could stare at the night sky without leaving my room.

I opened my hotel bedroom door and to my amazement it was even more beautiful than the brochure.

I ran around the hotel just to look at everything.

"What are you twelve?" Morgen said as she entered with a parade of bellhops behind her.

I sighed and sat down out of breath and thirsty.

"I was just getting acquainted with the room. But what do you wanna do for the rest of the day?" I offered.

"Well the rest of the hotel guests are gearing up for happy hour, a group of us are going to scope out the hotties, and some people are being lame and staying in. But I wanted to go see the beach." She stated plainly.

I wasn't a fan of the beach but I guess I could go just to see it. It would make for a great writing place with the scenery and all.

"Alright let me get my suit."
