Michael's POV
December 19, 1988:
Well alright, I guess Maria was right, I can't handle this. We're stuck in traffic and it's starting to snow harder.
Michael: "Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy", I said covering my face.
Alexander: "Are you okay Daddy?", he said from the back seat.
Michael: "Yes, yes I'm okay Alex. It's just I'm worried about Mommy", I said as I put my hands on my lap. "I think we should turn back until----never mind", I said as I looked back at all the cars behind me. Just then I saw a rest stop at my right side, so I turned right and parked. I got out and got Alex and Michelle. I got the scroller for two from the trunk and sat Alex and Michelle in. Michelle had fallen asleep so I covered her up and we headed inside. Luckily there was not a lot of people so I took my hoodie off and went to sit. I saw a women sitting next to me with her head in her hands, crying.
Michael: "Excuse me? Are you alright?", I said putting my hand on her shoulder.
María: "No. I---- Michael?", she said as she lifted her head.
Michael: "Maria? Oh Thank God your alright!", I said as I hugged her tightly.
María: "Oh Michael", she said hugging me back, crying on my shoulder.
Michael: "it's okay. I'm here with you now", I said still holding her tightly.
Alexander: "Mommy? Are you okay?"
María: "Oh Alex", she said as she took him out of the stroller and held him in her arms. "Yes, I'm okay. I have you guys here now and that's all that matters", she said smiling her cute smile.
Michael: "There's that smile I love so much", I said smiling and wiping her tears away. Just then a man came over to us, he looked no more then 29, he seemed lost.
Christian: "¿Habla español?"
María: "Yo si, ¿necesita algo?"
Christian: "¡Oh si! ¿Sabe donde puedo encontrar un teléfono?
María: "Oh, bueno no hay uno por aquí pero puede usar el mío, ¿si quiere?.
Christian: "Oh. Gracias. Lo devuelvo, ¿ya?
María: "Oh, tome su tiempo"
~30 minutes later~
Christian: "Aquí esta. Muchas gracias", he said a little upset and handing back her phone.
María: "De nada. ¿Todo bien?, she said taking back her phone and putting it in her pocket.
Christian: "Oh, si. Es que mi familia no va poder venir para Navidad por que hay mucho hielo y no puede el avión irse. Mi mujer no va esta feliz cuando no pueda venir su mamá. Mi hijito no va teñir una mejor Navidad"
María: "Oh, lo siento. ¿Si querré pueden pasar la Navidad con nosotros?", she said with a smile.
Christian: "Oh, ¿estas segura?
María: "Oh si, no es mucha molestia. Es Navidad, tenemos que hacer buenos que lo de mas", she smiled.
Christian: "Oh, gracias. Muchas gracias.", he said smiling and walked away then came back. "¿Si, puedo preguntar, Que es su nombre?"
María: "María Cruz"
Christian: "¿María? ¿María? ¡Oh María! ¿Se aguarda de mi?
María: "¿Como se llama usted?"
Christian: "Christian Casantro. Yo fue a la escuela con usted. Usted me sabia traducir"
María: "Oh, ¡ya me acorde! ¡Ni sabia que eras usted! Hablamos mas en Navidad, ya?
Christian: "Ya bueno, bueno. ¿Todavía tiene mi numero?"
María: "Por su puesto"
Christian: "Bien. Bueno esta luego", he smiled and walked away.
Michael: "What did he say?", I said a little confused.
María: "Your so cute", she chuckled. "He just said that his family can't come for Christmas because there's so much ice that the planes can't fly so I told him, he and his family, can come have Christmas with us. He's an old friend"
Michael: "Oh, alright", I smiled. "Your so cute when your speaking Spanish", I said kissing her on the cheek.
María: "Hehe, well I've been speaking Spanish all my life", she chuckled. "And I want Alex and Michelle to learn too while their still young"
Alexander: "But I can speak Spanish Mommy"
María: "You can? What can you say?"
Alexander: "Te amo", he said smiling big.
María: "Aww, te amo mas mi amor", she said smiling and kissed him on the cheek. "Say it to Daddy"
Alexander: "Te amo Daddy", he said smiling big.
Michael: "Awww, well I love you most Alex", I said and kissed him on the cheek.
