I HOPE YOU GUYS STAYED PAST THE CREDITS BUT IF NOT NOW YOU KNOW). I ALWAYS HAD A FEELING SHE WAS ALIVE, ESPECIALLY SINCE WE NEVER ACTUALLY SEEN HER DEATH, JUST WHAT DOM IMAGINED HAPPEN. UGH LOOK AT ME GOING ON AND ON (I COULD TALK ABOUT THIS FOREVER HEHEH) HERE IS YOUR UPDATE GUYS
LETTY'S POV
Pete drove to the gas station and I followed
"You need gas?" I asked getting out of the car
"Naw but you need ice for that hand" he said looking at my knuckles
"Don't worry about it"
"No, we're getting ice" he ordered
I smiled "Yes sir" I said as he led me inside the store of the gas station. I stayed up the
front and bought some gum. Pete went back to the freezer.
Four guys drove up and entered the store. They walked around then went to the back. I
watched them from the mirror up top, when they approached him, I felt like I had to do
something. I walked to the back to see what was up.
When they heard someone walking up one of them pulled out a gun. It was aimed at my head. I put my hands up
"Ay ay ay. Relax man. She has nothing to do with this. This is between us!" Pete pleaded
"Who is she?" One of the guys asked
"That's my girl alright please, man" Pete said
"She kinda cute" Another guy said touching my arm
He gave me the chills "If you wanna keep your fingers, I suggest you keep your hands to
yourself"
They laughed "Or else what? Your gunna make me?" the guy who touched me said
"Just might have to" I laughed back
The third guy hit me across my face. Pete jumped to be by my side but two guys held him
back. "I want my money by Friday or else the boss is gunna have to deal with you himself!" they said letting go of him and turning to me. I had another gun in my face, the guy holding it kept swinging it back and forth between me and Pete saying "You tell anyone about this, your dead. You hear me!"
We nodded. I watched them leave and the guy behind the counter acted as if he didn't see
nothing.
I left Pete and drove home. As expected he followed me.
"Letty!"
"I'm going to bed" I announced
"Don't you want to talk"
"About that! What kinda mess are you in?" I said holding my bruised cheek
"You don't want to know" he held my other had
"Oh yea? Try me" I pulled back my hand
"You wouldn't understand"
"Why cause I live this rich fancy lifestyle"
He stayed quiet
"You listen to me. This is all new to me, I lived in a one bedroom apartment with five
people. My father's in jail my mother's a crack whore and you think I'm some spoiled brat
cause I got a car and a house?"
"I didn't know"
"Of coarse you didn't. I'm the last person to judge a book by it's cover. You wanna sell
drugs? Fine. You wanna rob a bank? Go ahead. But let me know so I don't walk in the
middle of it"
"How much of the truth do you wanna know"
"Skip over the bullshit, get right to the chase"
"Okay, there's this gang. I'm not really suppose to talk about it but I sell for them. Straight
up latinos. The streets been hectic you know. Word is the boss is back and everyone gotta
get in line. That being said, rival gangs wanna get as much done as possible even if that
means that jumping us latins fellas. Those guys you saw back at the gas station. I was
suppose to pay up a few days ago but some blacks jumped me and took everything"
"What's your next move?"
"Race till I can pay up"
"Good luck"
"Yea Ima need it of I don't get all the cash before the boss shows up"
The lights for my house turned on and my grandmother opened the door "Say goodnight
Letty" she told me
"Goodnight" I kissed him
"Goodnight, sorry about your face"
I rubbed his gut, "Sorry about your stomach"
"Night" Pete waved to my grandmother. He tugged on my shirt and bit his lower lip
"Later"
I smiled and walked to the door.
"Some guy" she said to me
"He is" I blushed
I watched as her expression went from happy to angry. "¡Dios mío! ¿Qué ha hecho usted?
(Oh My God What did he do to you?)"
"Don't freak out"
"Don't freak out? Did he do this to you?"
"No!"
"Don't you dare stick up for him!"
"I'm not! We just ran into so trouble. Drop it please!"
"Your father has to know"
"But you won't be the one to tell him!"
"I'll get some ice"
I slept in her room that night. In the morning, I smelled breakfast cooking downstairs. By
the time I walked down the stairs, I saw people in my house. Vince walked around with a
plate of food in his hand, eating.
"Why is everyone here?" I asked him
"Go in the kitchen and see for your self" he said not even bothering to look up
I walked in the kitchen and saw him "Dad?"
He turned around and grinned. I ran and hugged him.
"Te echaba de menos! (I missed you!)"
"Le eché demasiado mi hija (I missed you too my daughter)" he held me "Let me look at
you"
I thought about hiding my face but he saw it
"What's that?" he asked
My grandmother started clearing out the kitchen for us to talk
Tony was about to leave. "No stay" My dad told him. He stayed
"Yea Letty, what's that" my grandmother said
"Quit it will ya!" I sat down on a stool and yelled at her
"Ay" he pointed "Show some respect to the woman who raised you, took you in, tu
abuelita"
"Sí"
"Explain"
I told him the story and he listened without interrupting. When I was done he was furious,
he punched the microwave.
"Miguel! No" my grandmother said
"Names" he said to me
"I don't know their names"
"Then call this Pete fellow" he said
"Miguel, you just got out. Better if you give it a rest and later we'll deal with it" Tony insisted
"Imagine if that was Mia…"
"I understand but you gotta think smart about this" Tony continued
"He's right" My grandmother said
"Dad, I'm fine. Really"
He looked at Tony who said "I'll get Dom and Vince to keep a closer eye on her"
"Thanks man"
The rest of the welcome home breakfast went good. I avoided questions pertaining to my
face.
When everyone left I took a shower and called Pete, he said he was busy and would call
me back though
It wasn't long until I fell asleep and by the time I woke it was 8:27pm
I waked out of my room. As I walked closer to my dad's room, his door was cracked open
slightly. I heard my dad talking to someone on the phone. "Find this guy, I want to know everything. Time for a change around here" he said in spanish
Time for a change? What did he mean by that, who was he talking about and why? I asked
myself. I didn't notice him walking to his door to open it all the way. He motioned me to
come in.
"You heard anything from Lenny's guys?" he asked the person on the phone.
I sat on his bed and listened.
"Yea, well I gotta go" he hung up the phone
"So what's up dad"
"Nothing much" he turned my face
"How's it looking?"
"You'll make it. Your an Ortiz kiddo" he assured
"I'm trilled" I laughed
"So you know about abuela's illness"
"What's the plan"
"Focus on school! Let the adults take care of it okay"
"Mom stopped by on my birthday"
"Oh boy, taking that it didn't go well"
"Define well"
"Give her a break she's trying"
"Your on her side, figures. I mean after all you slept with her most of your life"
"There's no side. And yes I did sleep with her, how do you think you got here?
"Ew! Over sharing"
H laughed "One day you'll find someone that you'll stick by no matter. Not even jail will separate you guys."
"How can you love someone and sleep with someone else? I would never do that"
"Maybe not, but love is a dangerous thing. Imagine being away from the one you love for months or even years. You'll do anything to sop the hurt. To protect your family"
"Yea you know what happened to our so called family?"
"I'm working on it. Go to bed, you have school in the morning" he laughed
"Uh, okay" I said. He kissed me on my forehead and walking out of his room I asked
"who were you on the phone with?"
"Business. Nothing to worry about" he smiled
The next morning I dreaded going to school. It was a rainy morning, I didn't bother
saying goodbye to anyone. I wanted to let them get some sleep especially my dad I'm
guessing jail didn't have the best beds.
On the way to school I stopped for coffee. The rain finally slowed down and the school
was crowded. I picked up my schedule and scanned it.
"Anything good?" Mia asked walking up behind me
"Bye" I started walking off
"You can't be mad at me forever!"
"You wanna bet?" I kept walking and she gave up
First four classes included Biology, World History, English and Algebra I in that order
It was fourth period and I was late. I snuck in threw the back door and sat next to this odd kid.
"Hey" I said
"Hey" he responded and continued to draw in his notebook
"Whatchu drawing?"
"95 Integra GS-R" he shifted his book so I could see
"Sweet! Yours?"
"Naw, I wish. You drive?"
"Yea, Nissan 240 SX"
"Damn brand new huh"
"Sorta, it's been a work in progress. We rebuilt it."
"We?"
"Yea, my friends and dad's best friend who's kinda like a dad to me, Tony"
"I think I seen your car before. It's purple right?"
"Yea"
"I seen you at that race meet the other day"
"Yea that was me"
"Jesse" he introduced himself
"Letty"
"Cool. That short for something?"
"Yea"
"Going to tell me?" he laughed
"Nope" I laughed also
We talked until class was over and it was time for lunch. I couldn't wait to eat but I wasn't
too excited about having lunch by myself.
"Hey, eat lunch with me?" I asked him
"Yea sure"
We got our lunch, sat down and began to eat it.
"Don't look now but a couple of guys are coming our way" Jesse said looking at his plate
I looked up out of curiosity and rolled my eyes after seeing who it was.
"What's up Letty? Don't know nobody anymore?" Vince asked as he stood and put his
foot up between me and Jesse, exposing his crotch.
"Uh. I think I just lost my appetite" I said pushing away my tray of food
"Yes! Free food" Vince said putting his foot down and grabbing the food
"You two done here?" I asked them
"You know these guys?" Jesse asked
"Member the story I told you about my car, these are the guys" I told him
"Look we're suppose to watch out for you okay" Dom said
"Like you watched out for your date the other night?"
"Sorry I don't protect against psychotic bitches" Dom joked
I pushed him of the chair "Looks like your the one who needs protection. Come on Jesse,
bell's about to ring"
Jesse and I got up and left
"Long story?" he asked trying to keep up with the pace as I rushed to get as far away
from the cafeteria as possible
"Very long" I replied
"What's your schedule?" he asked me
I showed him
"We got the same 7th period"
"Kay, well see you there" My next class was Art then Culinary with Mia, which I skipped
once I saw her, and finally Gym for 7th period.
In the locker room.
Pete called me.
"Hey" he said
"Hi"
"Oh no, what's wrong" he laughed
"I hate school" I complained
"It's only the first day"
"Exactly. Did you meet that guy yet?"
"No, I gotta go. Talk to you later" .
"Wait wait wait. I think my dad wants to meet you"
"What?"
"Yea, just come over for dinner tonight at 7"
"Won't it be awkward?"
"I guess. I would invite friends if I had any" I thought about it. "How about you invite
Hector and the boys and I'll invite Jesse"
"Who's Jesse?"
"Pete, don't worry bout him just get your guys to come okay!"
"Sure. Bye"
I hung up and tried to find a locker so I could change for gym. Mia again. She had another
class with me and clearly way more friends. I opened my locker and started to change. I figured I was late when all the girls started heading to the gym.
I got dressed and went in the gym where I met up with Jesse.
Dom and Vince had this period also and played basketball the entire time. School was over, Jesse and I meet up outside the gym.
"So I'm having a dinner thing at my house, you should come" I gave him a piece of paper
with my address on it
He looked at it and said "Yea, I'll be there"HEY GUYS THIS WAS PROBABLY A POINTLESS CHAPTER.
