What happens when two care-free spirits collide into a night of drunken mistakes and meet three months laters with unexpected turn of events
"You want to actually marry me are you crazy ? We don't even know each other we briefly had sex once and mag...
Getting into the door I hear music and smell tamales, walking into the kitchen I see my mom dancing and singing still not noticing I'm here. This is one thing I miss about being home, my moms outgoing personality and ways of making you feel warm inside even on a bad day
"Listening to La Sombra again mama, smells good did you need any help ?" sitting at the counter
"No I'm almost done, rice is finishing now, the tamales are still hot and your dad is gunna be here with Deb and Salvador any minute go shower and get ready please"
"Are you sure I can help you and we still have some time before Steven and his friends arrive"
"While your papa is gone and it's just us girls why don't you tell me how you met this handsome guy" she smiles stirring the rice
Knowing I can't lie to her I might as well start with the truth on how we really did meet
"We met at a bar, as weird as the encounter seems but how most people in LA meet now"
"Did you have sex in the bathroom like most people do it too"
"No, we got to know a little about each other first and then I drove him home...where we ending up hooking up" I shrink down to size
"Well at least you didn't do what I did, I loved your father and thought we could make it work and seeing how in love we were I thought he wanted it too. But a wise man said only fools rush in and it only lasted for so long before the sparks were gone and we had to get divorced" looking at her I can she she still isn't over the way they ended things but she masked it thinking I can't tell
"Having a baby doesn't save marriages does it ?"
"I was pregnant before we got married, we did it only because we thought it was right but I guess not. I'm just glad that you found happiness with Steven the better way than I did, mi bebe teniendo su propia bebe" she gently placed a hand on my cheek looking so happy for me but I'm starting to feel all the guilt in lying to her and realize we're not too far off from each others story maybe I should just tell her the truth "now go upstairs and get dressed we have guest arriving soon" she smacks me shooing me away
Guess it'll have to wait
Smoothing out my dress I stare at myself and see just how beautiful I really do look with my baby bump on display. Any mom would try to cover it and all but I'm not like everyone else I love my belly and my baby so why not embrace both. Finishing the last touches I grab my pink scrunchy and tie it around my hair holding it to the side content with how I look

"You look beautiful n/n" turning I see my little brother Salvador
"Hi pequeño pepita, lets get this over with yeah" grabbing his hand I take us down the stairs hearing everyone exchange casualties
Hm no Steven yet so I guess they'll be coming alil late. Gives me time to catch everyone up to date so it's less hectic during dinner
