Buscábalo



My arm was wrapped around Andres as his legs were tangled with mine from last night. I couldn't really remember what happened, just up until him beating up some guys. There was loud banging coming from the front door. Andres groans and gets out of bed. I stayed until Andres called for me.

"Marisol!" I picked myself up from my bed and put on Andres shirt and shuffled to the door. It was Angel standing in front of Andres, who wearing nothing but boxers.

"We gotta go." He coughs.

"Go where?" I yawned.

"Get Ez out of the police station." I snapped it out.

"Yeah give me a second." I got to my room, grabbed decent smelling shorts and shoes. I hop on my shoes and Andres hands me my bag.

"See you later." He said as I walked away with Angel.

"No you wont." Angel rolled his eyes and we got in the truck. Angel seemed awkward, don't know why. It was the vibe i was getting. "So-"

"Dont start." I pinched my nose, leaning against the window.

"Coco know?" I just let out a chuckle. "You guys good?" I didn't answer. We made it to the jail and bailed Ez out, with the money that Angel had left. We waited for him outside, leaning against the truck. We watched Ez limp his way to us, looking like shit. I can feel the awkward tension between us, I mean yesterday was something else, meaning a blur. We didn't say a word and got in the truck. I sat in the middle of the muscular boys, no room to move. "Sorry about yesterday." Angel came out clean. He shrugs my arm.

"I was a shitty sister." I hummed. "Ive been fucking up lately."

"Saw Adelita." Angel sighs. Both me and Ez turned to him. Well fuck, no wonder he was shitty yesterday.

"Shit when?"

"Few days ago."

"They let her out? How?" I looked at him with puzzled eyes. How? Thats was my question. He shakes his head, puffing out air. "Is she okay?"

"Nah. Shes not."

"The baby?" My nephew. Angel shakes his head again, i looked down. I knew what that meant.

"Oh fuck." Ez sighs.

"My little boy." Ez and I apologized to him. I can feel what he was going through. Losing a child, god. When i lost my baby, I couldn't even look at another baby ever because all I wanted was to have my own back. Angel told us more about how she left him again.

"Coco and I broke up." The two looked at me. I just stared ahead.

"Wait, what the fuck!"

"No ring." Ez looks down.

"You hid it for that long?" I remembered when he tried to look at my hand the other day. I just nod.

"You were crazy for that mother fucker? Why?"

"We just..." I shrugged, wiping away my tears. "Fell apart." I lied. "Just dont, dont hurt him, okay? I dont want that. Dont tell anyone You both have to promise me."

"So Andres?" Ez was shocked to the news.

"Andres? The guy from the bar?"

"Friends with benefits i guess?" I rubbed my eyes. "He means nothing to me." Ez and Angel held my hands. "Dont feel sorry for me, it almost makes me sorry."

"You both will get another shot." Ez tells us. "You'll meet the right person and...have a family." As if that was easy. Coco was my right person. Now, he's gone. He left me.

"I know." Angel sniffs. "Nails. She's pregnant."

"Are you fucking serious?" My eyes widen. How does he get to get a baby but I dont? Why couldn't I have just one? And- i cant be mad him. No. Its not his fault you lost your baby Marisol. But it was fair.

"Its crazy, i know. But... well, maybe this was how it was all supposed to go down. I aint gonna fuck this up. This is my second chance."

"You're gonna be a great dad." Ez congratulated him. I was still managing how to put into words without letting my anger out.

"Congratulations." Was all I said, faking a smile.

"But bro do me a favor, you gotta start wrapping that shit." We all laughed. "You cant go around fucking knocking everybody up."

"I cant help it. I got the 100 proof baby juice."

"Dios, you are disgusting." I closed my eyes. "You gotta chill with the baby making, i dont wanna be a tia of 10 kids."

"10 kids you'll be taking care of." He plays around.

"My ass." Angel started the engine and drove to drop me off at Carlas. Ez hops off to let me out and grabs my hand.

"You good?"

"Always." I made him let me go and I got inside the house, grabbing a bottle as I made my way to my room. I was mad at the universe, why couldn't I have my baby? I would've been alright, happier, if I just had one. Im crying out loud, one. Why cant I just have one?

My vision started to get blurry and i got on my bed, feeling the bottle slip off my fingers and lights out for me. My light snores filled the room, Andres covers me with a blanket and noticed the bottle of vodka I had, and saw more empty glasses under my bed. He was concerned, scared. Just as he was about to wake me up, someone was knocking on the door, more like banging. I did wake up and a rush of adrenaline came kicking in.

"Where is she?!" I heard Lettys voice and I saw her running into my room. She had a look of panic written all over her face.

"Letty? Whats wrong?" I tumbled out of bed, the wall catching my fall. She runs to me and hugs me. I was now confused. "Letty-"

"Coco said you were kidnapped." She pulls back. "Hes out looking for you! Oh my god what if its trap?"

"Hold on, what? Who? Who said that?"

"Coco said that someone told him that you were kidnapped by some crackheads and he went to look for you."

"Andres I need you to stay with her." I grabbed my jacket as I charged out the door. He grabs my arm.

"You can't, your drunk."

"Let go of me." I snapped my arm back and ran out to look for Coco. Who would lie about this? Who knew me? I never met a crackhead who knew him either. Ive checked all over town, checking in bars, in park and nothing.

"Come one Coco, where are you?" I stepped into a alley and pulled put my phone to call him, the line kept buzzing and just a wave of nausea came over me. I felt a pain behind my head making me fall over. Two guys pulled my legs and start dragging me back and I was too out of it to stop it, i looked at my hand and saw I was bleeding.
