After the boys went out, i went straight to Cocos, picked up some burgers for Letty. I just wanted to lay down, shut my eyes for a couple of minutes. I sat down with Letty, ate and headed to sleep. That was the greatest sleep I had in the past few days. I woke up to drop off Letty at school, and headed to the shop to help my dad out with the new meat delivery that came that day.

"I'll be back." He said as he wiped down his hands and walked to the front. I put the meat in the freezer and looked at the time. It was time to go pick up Letty. I washed my hands and walked out.

"Hey pa, imma head out, i gotta pick up Letty from school, and stop to see Chris." I stopped myself as I saw my dad hugging someone. "Em?" They pulled away and Emily smiled at me.

"Marisol!" I gave her a hug. Its been awhile since Ive seen her, last time was in the casino. "How are you?"

"Im good, you?" I said as I pulled away. We just smiled.

"Better." She nodded. "Its been awhile."

"It sure has. Hows your kid?" I pointed out.

"Cristobal? Hes two now." She smiles.

"Wow." I surprisingly said. "Glad to hear hes okay."

"Oh yeah. Letty? Shes-"

"Its Coco, my boyfriends daughter." I smirked at her.

"And you thought relationships were disgusting." She chuckled. I rolled my eyes playfully.

"Haha." I faked laughed. I looked at my watch. "Well I have to go. It was nice seeing you Em. Really." I gave her another hug.

"Maybe we can hang out, have a drink, talk like we used to."

"I would actually love that." I nodded. Its been a long time since we talked, hanged out. Em just, vanished when she broke things with Ez. "Bye Em." I softly said.

"Bye." She waved. I walked up to my dad and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"Adios pa."

"Mija." I walked out of the shop. I turned to my right and saw Emilys bodyguards, and one of them was Roberto. I clenched my jaw. He saw me and i walked to Cocos car and drove off. I cant believe Miguel hired him. How even did he get the job? Roberto is Emily's bodyguard? I cant. I blasted music to keep me away from the thoughts. I pulled up to the waiting area. I pulled out my phone and texted Ez.

Hermanita: every according to plan? Anything on Adeltia yet?

There was no response. Just wanted to have a check in. They're busy, possibly. I leaned back, watching cars pulling up. I heard the bell rang. I rolled down the window to see Letty. I saw kids coming out, one of them caught my eye. It was a teen girl, pregnant. She had her hand on her stomach, smiling.

Flashback: I havent been feeling good for about of months actually. I went to the doctors to see whats going on with me. I hate the doctors, its just creeps me out. I also hate shots, HATE them.

"Ms. Reyes." The nurse yelled to the quiet, lonely room. I stood up and walked inside. "What's going on?" She asked me as she pulled out some paper work.

"Uh, i havent been feeling too good for a couple of months."

"Have you been throwing up?" I nodded my head. She smiles. "Can you pee in this cup, we're going to do some test." I grabbed the cup from her. After I was done, she sent me to a room. Couple minutes later, she came in. "Well Ms. Reyes, it looks like youre pregnant." My jaw dropped to the floor. "Congratulations." I sat there, shocked.

"Oh." I coughed. "Thank you." I walked out of the doctors, thinking about what is going to happen. Me having a kid? Coco? What is he gonna say to this!? I pulled to the house. I sat in the kitchen.

"Hey. How was the doctors?" Coco asked as he sat down with me.

"Im pregnant." I chuckled nervously. Cocos eyes popped.

"Seriously? Like, not joking?" I shook my head.

"No wonder, right?" We sat there, quietly. "Johnny, please say something."

"We're having a kid." He chuckles. "This is gonna be tricky, im not a great dad, maybe this is my chance to make it up."

"You're gonna be a great dad. I mean look, Letty gave you a second chance."

"We're going to be okay. We got this." Coco grabbed my hands, i looked up and down, smiling.

Flashback over: the car door closed. I turned to see Letty, tying up her hair.

"Hey." I smiled at her.

"How was school?" I asked as i pulled out of the school.

"A pain, Ms. H was up my ass. She told me I couldn't wear these shorts! She gave me a write up, i mean if she has a big problem, she can buy me a new wardrobe." I laughed. "Can suck my ass."

"Thats Ms. H for you."

"Where are we going?"

"I gotta stop by my job, pick up my pay check." I parked the car. "Wanna come?"

"Sure." We both got out of the car and walked in the bar. It wasn't busy today, possibly later tonight.

"Marisol!" Chris yelled out as he walked with beer.

"Hey Chris!" I waved. He hugged me. "Chris this is Letty, Cocos daughter." Letty bit her lip as she looked up and down at Chris.

"Nice to meet you Letty, Marisol tells me a lot about you."

"Good things I hope." She smiles.

"Hows the run?" He asked as he walked to the counter, stocking up beer.

"Its was okay. I'm alive." He laughs.

"Glad you are. Aye, coming back right?"

"Si, i know you miss me."

"More like the customers miss you." He passed me my check.

"Oh Chris. Ill be back mañana." I patted his back.

"Okay te veo." Me and Letty waved goodbye. I stopped by to get something to eat and heading back home. Letty did her homework in the kitchen as I sat down with her painting.

"So I have to write about someone for school." She taps her pencil on the table. "I was wondering if I can write about you. Plus it'll make me know you more." I placed my brush in the water.

"What do you want to know?" I asked as I stood up to get beer.

"Highschool life, first boyfriend, painting, work? Anything like that." Letty started to write down something in her notebook.

"Highschool, hm, I wasn't popular, either I was a loner, I knew everyone and everyone knew me. I played soccer, varsity in sophomore to my senior year. I got a full ride to UCLA." Letty was more interested than writing what i had to say down. "Painting, Angel taught me. He loved painting and drawing, me being nosey, I wanted to do what my big brother was doing. Years of practice, I was the Picasso in my family."

"Boyfriends? I mean, i know my dad wasn't your first."

"Chris was one, and there's this guy, who im not going to mention." I rolled my eyes, just the thought of Roberto makes me disgusted.

"Hold on, Chris? As in Chris from the bar?" She slams her hands down. "You dated him?"

"First grade all through my Freshman year. Chris and I had been friends since we were babies. His mom and my mom worked together. Ez and his brother were friends. We thought it was meant to be, but we drifted after his brother died."

"Died?"

"His brother was part of the MC." She nodded. "Chris and I broke up because we thought that we were better off as friends." I drank my beer. "Then we grew up, i got into UCLA, was in a relationship, Chris got married, had twins."

"Damn it." She whispers. I laughed. "What was it like when Ez went to jail?"

"Hard. I felt like i lost my best friend. Ez and I were close. For 8 years, i was lost without him. I was depressed, lonely. But when he came back, I felt like my life was getting back together. I missed him." I played with my ring, looking down. "I never knew how much I love my brothers. No matter how dumb they are, the stupid fights they get into, they are my life. Ill do anything to keep them happy."

"You really care for them."

"Of course." I smiled, looking a Letty. "Just like I care for you." She widen her smile.

"Thanks Marisol."

"De nada Letty." I got up and got another beer.

"Whos Roberto? My dad has been saying his name a lot." I placed the bottle down.

"My ex. He is a very bad man. All he want is to be with me again. He did a bad thing to me."

"He assaulted you?" I nodded.

"I never hated a person more than him. Every time i see him, i feel angry, i feel like the day he pinned me against the ground."

"Why didnt you do anything to him?"

"His dad is a cop. I have a restraining order, thanks to Franky. Plus he works for the cartel. It doesn't look good for me." I touched my lip. "I cant forgive him. He ruined me. Then i met your dad. Coco caught me when i was falling down. Your dad fixed me." Letty smiled and came hugged me.

"Im sorry what he did to you." I kissed her head. "Im glad you're better now."
