Antonio just got off the phone with his ex-girlfriend. He had just found out about his son. She had called him up to let him know when to pick up his unwanted son. Antonio loves kids, but his ex only kept the baby because it was against her views. As soon as she had had her son, Lovino, she waited for Antonio to pick him up.
Antonio got up from his siesta and put on some clean clothes. He was a landscaper, so clean clothes were kind of hard for him to find. As a landscaper, he had very little body fat and was muscular, because he was lifting heavy sacks and digging up lots of rocks and soil.
Antonio walked over to his ex-girlfriend's house with a big waggon that he had cleaned up to put his son's things in. Antonio also had a hiking backpack that was actually built for hikers with young children. Antonio found his ex-girlfriend's house and sent her a short text message so he wouldn't wake up his son (if he was asleep).
Yolanda (the ex-girlfriend) had opened the door and looked at her ex. She giggled at him because he had looked so ridiculous. She went back into her house and picked up a small suitcase and a couple of big bags. Antonio took them and put them in the waggon. Yolanda went back into the house and brought out Lovino.
Antonio took Lovino from Yolanda's arms and examined his face.
"He has your eyes," Antonio said to her.
"He has your wallet," Yolanda said back to him.
Antonio looked at his son and saw that Lovino had stolen his wallet from his jacket pocket. Lovino started to play with the zipper of the wallet and also shake the wallet. Before Lovino could turn over the wallet upside down, Antonio put his large hand underneath the wallet and stepped onto Yolanda's lawn just in case some of his money had fallen out. Murphy's Law said that everything that could go wrong will go wrong. Just as Antonio had stepped onto Yolanda's lawn, all of his money had fallen down into the short grass.
"So, I'm going to take our son home okay," Antonio suggested.
"He's not my son anymore. I don't want you or him anywhere near me. And if you have problems, I am not going to help or take either of you back," Yolanda said to him angrily, while making herself very clear.
Antonio placed Lovino into the hiking backpack and gently put on the backpack. Lovino had fallen asleep finally and looked adorable. Antonio was doing his best to be gentle as he walked and dragged the large red waggon. behind him. The waggon. had many large sacks in it, probably filled with clothing along some baby accessories and necessities. Antonio walked for twenty minutes until he reached his house.
His house wasn't really nice to look at, it was almost a shack. It was a very small adobe house, it had a few cedar shrubs in the yard. Antonio let go of the handle to the waggon. and took out his house keys from lanyard that he wore around his neck. He unlocked the door and entered his small house. He lay Lovino down on the rocking chair, and quickly brought in the large bags that were in the waggon., along with the waggon. into the house.
Antonio then went to his bedroom and took out an empty drawer from made a makeshift cradle out of it. He then picked up his cell phone and dialled up Gilbert's phone number. But then all of a sudden, Francis had called him.
