Part 5
2 hours later the doorbell rang.
"Hey guys," Maria said as she opened the door for Kyle and Alex.
"Happy birthday Maria!" They said in unison.
"Thanks, come on in," Maria said and let them into the house.
"So, now you are legal, what are you going to do?" Kyle asked her.
"Well, first I am going to hug you and then I am going to open your presents," Maria said and hugged them. They walked into the living room and they all looked as Maria opened her presents. Alex gave her a alarm- clock, Kyle gave her Lifehouse's new CD and Liz gave her different sorts of make up.
"Thanks Kyle, I love Lifehouse!" Maria said and hugged him.
"I know, you play "Hanging by a Moment" like, all the time,"
"What can I say, I love it," Maria said to him.
"There is one more present, who is it from?" Kyle asked as he looked at the little present on the table.
"Michael," Maria said and looked at the present.
"Are you going to open it?" Alex asked curiously.
"I don't know," Maria said as she nibbled on her lower lip. A typical nervous sign of Maria Deluca.
"Maria, open it," Liz said and smiled at Maria.
"OK," Maria answered and took the present. She was really gentle in opening it. It was like it was the most precious thing in the world. Inside was a necklace with a medallion in a shape of a heart. Maria opened it. Maria started to cry when she saw what it said inside.
"What does it say?" Liz asked.
"It says: "alien or human we all have feelings," Maria said as she cried.
"Maria, that is beautiful," Liz said and hugged Maria.
"I know," Maria said and whiped away the tears from her cheek.
"So what now?" Kyle asked them.
"Why don't we go to the Crashdown? We have to work," Maria answered them.
"Maria, you don't have to work, you know," Liz said to her.
"I know, but I want to. I want this day to be over," Maria said and got off the floor.
"OK, Maria let's go," Liz said and led the way to the cars.
"I will drive," Kyle said and took the keys from Maria.
TBC.
