#3 The Devils Prayer and The Angels Answer
What is my mother hiding....
It was 6:25 pm. "Only 6 more minutes till I go home." she said as it was getting dark due to expected rain.
"Who the fuck do you think your talking to!" Yelled a younger teenage boy. "Im talkin to you with your bitch ass!" said a bigger Latino student. Quickly snapping out of her thoughts Maya saw the scene as students began to crowd around it. "Heyyy! stop this bull!" She ran to the students, pulling back the Latino student, who almost knocked her over. He was a really fit guy, with big arms and many tattoos. One of the managers of the place began to cool the students down. "Chill out man. You wanna get kicked out or what?" He calmed down and walked away from the scene as he headed outside. "Everyone class, well free time is now over go home!" She said as she swung her arms but everyone tackled her for a hug, "easy does it," She said as her voice was muffled, then the students went through the exit. "Bye ms Marten!!!"
As she began closing up the shop the rain began. "Oh shit, where's my umbrella?" She said anxiously as she dug into her Louis Vuitton Odeon when suddenly a strange shadow covered her preventing the rain drops from touching her. She turned quickly around to see no other than Dante himself. She gasped and jolted a bit. "How did you find me?" She asked as she looked around to see if they weren't the only ones on the street but the same Latino student who was in her class was still on the street waiting for a cab.
By the way his name is Louis Rodriguez. Maya had known him for a long time. She was like his guardian angel that wouldn't let him get into trouble, and he was the type that wouldn't let trouble touch her. He slowly walked over to Maya, and the mysterious man he never seen before. "You okay May," That was his little nickname he had given her. he looked at Dante with a hard look as Dante did the same except only Dante looked as if he was ready to tear his head off, and his eyes glowed an unusual blue. Maya saw the tension quickly building up between the two and she quickly stepped in between them,
"Louis I'll be fine, so just-" A yellow cab honked his horn twice. "See there, your cab is here. I'll see you tomorrow loser." She chuckled as she gave him a light punch on his arm. He smiled, and his face was yet soft again as he messed up Maya's hair even more due to rain. "Later May." He took one more glance at Dante, and his eyes glowed a quick yellow before entering the cab. "So what is it! Your stalking me now?" She asked as she crossed her arms. "Look I have to tell you something." He began as he hovered the big umbrella over the two. "Last night I had a dream and for some reason -Maya- was being whispered over and over again, and I don't know why. And when I saw you and you told me your name, it freaked me out and I had to leave, look I'm not the type of guy to go to random chicks and talk about my problems so first off don't get it twisted, alright babe, I'm just sayin, it dosent make scence." "I know how that feels. Listen my mom might know something about this. When I callled her she seemed to be hiding some facts and would explain it when I get home."
they began to take their walk. "Think I might want to have a talk with your mother as well." He said in a low suspicious tone. And for the rest of the way home they were in scilence mixed with rain thudding on the umbrella, and the squishy noise made by her sandals.
