"Break it up girls." Jeff Parker said he was gonna let Maria talk it out with the girl because she started it but he wasn't about to let it get psychical right there in his restaurant.
"Fine but the next time she wants to open her mouth to and disrespect me I'm gonna show her just how much talking I'll do." Maria said with a determined look on her face.
"Don't bring this in here." Jeff said trying to reason with her.
"Tell her not to bring it here I didn't go to her table with this crap she came to me." Maria argued she hated having people talk down to her like a kid.
"Alright ok do you understand that Courtney?" Jeff said turning to the girl that was now standing.
"Yeah." She said in a quiet voice.
"Good." Jeff said. "Now I'm sorry but it'd be better if you both go back and sit down. And no more of this and I mean it."

"Can you believe Maria I mean come on how rude can she get." Isabel said to her "brothers".
"Actually it kind of looked like Courtney started it to me." Max said defending Liz's friend. He couldn't believe his sister didn't have any compassion for someone just because that person looked different I mean they were different so why couldn't she understand it wasn't always that person fault.
"Still Courtney had reason to say what she did. And Maria didn't need to push her." Isabel said with her icy voice.
"Whatever she did not have any reason to be that way." Max hissed at his sister could be a real brat sometimes.
"Will you guys just get over it already." Michael said with a huff.
"Fine." Isabel said pulling a strand behind her ear.

The next day Maria was getting ready for school when Amy came staggering in.
"You look like a real slut you know that?" Amy said who was obviously drunk.
She took a deep breath then said "And you don't?"
"I am your mother I am older then you don't talk to me that way." Amy said slapping her daughter's face. Maria glared at her.
"I got to go to school I'll be late." Maria said pushing past her mom.
"Get back here and take that make up off." Amy called but Maria just kept on walking. She was thankful that she saw Alex parked out front she quickly ran to the bug.
"Hard morning?" Alex asked looking at her face which had already started bruising.
"Don't worry about it. Everything's fine." Maria said rather quickly not wanting to get into it with Alex.
"Well you look wonderfully scary today." Alex said taking in her appearance.
"Why thank you." Maria said with a laugh she had taken extra preparation for getting ready that day.
"No problem sweet thing." Alex said with a grin that remark pissed Maria off.
"Excuse me I am not sweet and I am most certainly not a thing." Maria said with a fake glare.
"Chill chica." Alex said glancing over at her. "Remember I'm trying to drive."
"Whatever." Maria said rolling her eyes.
