Pov: Héctor
We walked around the corner and saw our little casa. Ever since Ernesto was revealed for the fraud he was, our fame allowed us to get a bigger house than what we usually had. We walked up the steps and opened the door. We walked in and Miguel let go to look around.
"This is our house?" Miguel asked.
"Si Mijo." Julio said.
"Come Miguel, Héctor and I will take you to your room. You must be tired." Imelda said.
He didn't say anything, just followed us.
We walked up the stairs and down the hall to the last door on the left.
We walked in to see the plain room. It had a bed and a bit of space before a step that had a window overlooking the city.
"This will be your room Miguel." Imelda said.
"Tomorrow we can get some decoraciones, Eh?" I asked.
Miguel didn't say anything. He walked up to his new bed and wiped his hand across it. He stopped before turning to look at us.
"I-I don't want to be here…" he said with tears in his eyes, "I wanna go home…"
Imelda and I looked at each other.
"Miguel… we are sorry… but this is your home now…" I said.
Miguel began to cry again.
"I'll talk to him." I whispered to Imelda.
She nodded and slowly left the room.
I walked up to Miguel as he wiped his eyes.
"Oy Mijo, come here." I said as I knelt down.
Miguel slowly walked up to me and hugged me.
"I don't wanna be here Héctor." He said.
"Oh chamaco, I know that it seems bad. But after a couple of days, I promise you will feel better." I said.
"But… I never got to find amor… to have my own familia…" Miguel said.
"Tell you what. Tomorrow, I will take you wherever you'd like to go tomorrow and I can show you the wonders of being muerto." I said, giving a big smile.
Miguel looked at me.
"I wanna go home…"
I looked down.
"Try to get some sleep Mijo." I patted his back.

I got into bed as Héctor began to leave when I spoke.
"Héctor… c-can you please stay and play something?" I asked.
He looked at me and smiled.
"Si Mijo." He said as he left and came back with his guitar.
He walked up to the window and sat down.
"Any requests?" He asked.
"…Remember Me." I said.
He looked at me before smiling and nodding. He tuned his guitar and played.
Pov change: Héctor
"Remember me…
Though I have to say goodbye…
Remember me
Don't let it make you cry…
For ever if I'm far away
I hold you in my heart…
I sing a secret song to you
Each night we are apart…
Remember me…
Though I have to travel far
Remember me…
Each time you hear a sad guitar
Know that I'm with you
The only way that I can be
Until you're in my arms again…
Remember me…"
I saw Miguel was asleep, so I slowly got up and walked towards him.
"See you in the mañana." I said as I gently patted his head and walked out of the room, shutting the door.
Sorry this is so short, I am getting ready for a trip in the coming weeks. I promise to try and make them longer. Leave a review and I can't wait to write more soon.
