4 Chapter four

I wake up to the smell of pancakes. I get up pull my hoodie on spide the hood on and go down the stairs. Kathie flips a pancake and looks at Sara who is eating happily. I grab a plate and start to head up the stairs.

"Where do you think your going Señorita" Kathie asks looking at me. I turn to her.

"No estoy comiendo por un monstruo" I go up to my room and close the door. I sit on my bed turn on a show and eat. Kathie's pancakes are the best, someday I'm going to help her make her own restaurant. This is too good not to share. Kathie comes in and sits by me she softly puts an ice pack on my cheek.

"Ella golpea fuerte por una anciana" kathie whispers. I look at her swallow my last bit of pancake and grab my dishes.

"Thanks...for...just everything, helping me deal with her, speaking Spanish with me, it means a lot," I say softly she smiles

"Well, your not the only one she yells at," Kathie says pulling her sleeves down more. I look at her and hug her tightly.

"It'll be an okay mom" I walk down and put my dishes in the sink I look at Sara, she looks at me hoping I will let her apologize. I shake my head and go back to my room.

Kathie is gone by now. I sit on the bed tapping my foot.

"Arisa," A soft muffled voice says. I think it's just in my head so I keep tapping my food. It comes again.

"Arisa," the voice is louder yet I still think it's in my head.

"Arisa!" Sara yells I snap out of it and look at her.

"Yeah?" I ask getting up.

"Have you been sitting like that since breakfast?" Sara asks looking confused and annoyed

"I don't know what time is it?" I ask

"Five love" Sara says I gulp and rub my head.

"Yeah guess so." I look up at her.

"Anyway, what were you going to ask?"

"I'm not asking, get in the car," Sara says harshly. I groan and go outside. Kathie is in the car but she's in the back. I try to get in the back with her but she shakes her head and points to the front seat.

"A dónde vamos?" I ask

"Solo el parque, entra" she says and gets on her phone. I sit in the front and we drive to the park. I get out and walk around the park, I feel something squishy and wet hit the back of my head.

"Qué fue eso.." I grab whatever has splat on the back of my head and look at the rotten apple in my hand. I turn around and see Sara smirking. My hands clench I run toward Sara but Kathie grabs me quickly.

"WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM COME HERE MOM I'LL SHOW YOU HOW IT FEEL'S TO BE ME!!" I yell trying to get out of Kathie's grasp.

"Cálmate pequeña, está bien" Kathie says softly

"¡No! ¡Como pudiste decir eso! ¡Ella te lastimó!" I yell tears filling my eyes.

"Porque sé cómo dejarlo ir, es hora de que hagas lo mismo." she says in a soft voice I nod and walk to the car.

"Where are you going?" Sara asks

"Well, I have to go wash the rotten apple off my head." this time I don't force myself to sound like an American my thick Mexican accent shines through and I grin then drive off. I blast music all the way home after showing I go back. They get in and let me drive home since I refuse to get out.

I park and go to my room. I sit on the bed and pull the hoodie off. I look at it and the red stain. I punch the wall and grab my bag I leave a not of Kathie and run to Steveins house.

I knock on the door rain dripping down my nose. I sniff and wipe the rain off my face. Stevein opens the door looks at me and pulls me inside.

"Baby your freezing did you run here?" Stevein asks wrapping a blanket around me.

"I had to see you" I sniff and kiss him. He picks me up and walks to his room.

"Your so cold, next time call me so I can come pick you up." Stevein says smiling.

"Nah me gusta el frío" I say smirking He tickles me and after we drink two wine bottles we go to sleep.
