I Forgot To Breath

push

Today is February 12, my best friend's birthday. We had a plan, at the beginning of the year, to just hang out, not make it anything extra. Just be silly all day. Wasn't a bad idea. Until the guys heard about it and decided it was. There were the 7 of us. The twins sam and zam, nafi the total sociopath. Then there is mike, jakob and me. The three of us used to be really close. But at one point something happened between me and jakob. And at last we have josh the cool one.

When the small get-together turned out to be a failure, we went to the party the boys throw at nafi's house. There are so many people that I haven't even seen before. It was crazy. After all the small get together turned out to be a colossal party.

In case you're wondering which one i am. I am the one  wearing a white louis Vuitton jumpsuit that fits perfectly against my body that it  even made the people in the party to take a second look to make sure i was wearing it. Also rocking the new fend shoes my mom got me this weekend. My hair and makeup is on point. I am on fleek. I can feel it.

The place was so crowded it made it seem hard to even breath. Different colours of light emitting from these tiny bulbs on the ceiling and walls suffocated the room. I can spot a photo booth at one corner, couples corner on the other. So many things to lay eyes on. I don't know how long they were planning to have this party going. It was epic, it was huge.

I can see mike at the corner with the other boys acting like a complete animal to impress some girls. So i decided just check out the place by myself for a little bit.

After looking around for a while, I find myself by the couples corner. I couldn't stand the amount of people around here. I was so annoyed how these people don't understand that this toxic chemical inside there brain won't last forever and how they don't get tired of lying to themselves. Thinking that by calling it love or giving it a different name makes it last forever. Little do they know, it doesn't. Who cares anyway. It was too much and I was on my way out when I spotted one of our friend Jacob.

Jakob used to be both me and mikes bestfriend like i said earlier  until he decided to confess his feelings for me.Since then we haven't been that close.Anyways i was going up to him when zam came infront of me and grabed my hands,freaking out.I think his either high or brunk i don't know for sure,maybe both.

Zam is one of the twin.His the one thats always high or drunk. Zams brother Sam doesn't hangout with us that much. His the smartest of us all. His a bit shy. As for zam its a different story.Half of the times that zam hang out with us i can assure you he doesn't remember anything. Anyways i forced him to let go of my hands. He is saying something but i can't hear anything his saying because the DJ is playing 21 savage so so loud. But obviously its nonsense. When i look to the direction jakob was standing he was not there.

Zam is now being so dramatic. He is slepping on the floor and talking about how beautiful the stars are. Can you believe this dude. Ughhh am so done with him.

So i went to the other direction. Where mike and josh are standing. Then mike spotted me and waved his hands. He is so hyped up to see me because i told him that I was not coming he couldn't even wait until i get there he came half way running. I was going for a hug as always. When i suddenly felt my legs miss the floor because mike decided it was time for a change and put me up in his shoulder infront of all the people in the room. I am so embarrassed I wanna kill him right now you have no idea. Not because he held me up in his shoulder. Where i still am by the way. But because he made  me droped my HIMALAYA  BIRKIN bag. Ughhhh stupid boys. I screamed my bag maybe ten times or more before i finally embress mother Land again but no one heared me. Because of the damm music. I finally picked up my precious bag checked if my baby was fine.

Josh was laughing his ass off by my reaction. I was pissed no word. I can feel my blood boiling inside me. I hit mike with the cup i was holding now they are laughing even more.

I was about to insult josh when I saw nafi coming to our direction to join us with his girlfriend for tonight. She is cute. But have that creepy look.she is wearing a pitch colored top that has no sleeve with a  tite jeans and some Gucci  heels. Ohhhhh She is some rich kid trust me because those heels are not chip.Maybe your wondering why i am interested in her clothes and heel instead of her beauty or what everyone is talking about. I just stared admiring her skin. But right before i was creating a word for her amazing skin i spotted something on her neck. It's tattoo. I literally choked to death because of it. Your wondering what the tattoos look like right. It is a green lightning.

In my other world a tattoo  is not just something you do for beauty. Every single thing you put on your body have meaning. It talks about your past your, present, your family and where you come from. The tattoos are who we are and what we're standing for And you can't gets this green lightning tattoo if you are not in the  gang member.

Maybe you are asking how i knew about all this. Its because my name is speranza rodriges. The daughter of the biggest mafia in the universe.

My friends call me hope because they have hard time to pronounce my name properly so they decided to call me by the meaning.

Anyway my dad once told me to inform him if i ever saw a green lightning tattoo on anyone around me. I didn't understand the reason then but now i know that they are the biggest crime organizations that wants to kill me and my familie to take over my father's business. They call themselves PANDAS i don't even know why.

I went outside and called my father. It started ringing a few seconds ago but he is not answering right before the last tone was about to end i heard my father from the other side. My heart suddenly calmed down and felt like i have everything under control. I always feel like this when i hear his voice.

"Speranz hello!! mami can you hear me".
yes papa i can hear you.
"mami why are you not home yet i've been waiting for you at dinner".
yea papa i am at mikes birthday party at nafis house. I called to tell you that i saw a girl with the lightning tattoo at the party. My father freaked out and started asking me weird questions. Maybe it was a bad idea to call.After he was sure that i wasn't drunk and fooling around. He told me that his on his way to the party and to not to leave the crowd whatever the reason is and to stay there until he gets there then he hang up

I am a bit scared to go back inside because even though my father had tough me how to control the situation if i ever saw this tatto but i have never came across with anyone that has it ever. I went back inside and everyone was talking about college and how our life would be different after a year and so many things. I looked at the girl again to see if i could find any thing on her besides her tattoo. That is when it hit me. The pandas don't recruit womens. Now i understand why my father was asking me those weird questions. I knew i have to take a picture of her but i don't know how to get her to do that. Should i go with i like your style can i take a picture of it. Nooooo its stupid it doesn't even make sense. I went with a group picture. So i acted like i was trying to take a selfi with everyone for Instagram. I put my hands high with my phone but i couldn't get everyone fit inside the camera specially her i don't know what to do.Nafi suggested the photo booth. How did i not think of that!! Anyway we all went there mike and josh carrying zam. We took the photo and i made sure she was infront. The pictures turned out to be amazing because i can see her face clearly in the picture.

The party kept on going for almost an hour but my father was not here yet so i decided to take matters on my own hands. I was trying to start a conversation with her but it was hard with all the boys around. A few minutes later i asked her to come get a drink with me. She gave me the thank you God look and stood up. The place was even more crowded than earlier but we managed to get to the kitchen. I spoted some dude from school fooling around in there. I felt a bit safe that he is in  here for some reason.
