Another day, another dinner at la casa Madrigal.

They invited me for dinner and my excitement could barely be contained. I can't tell if it's because of my favourite person or the food. Perhaps both, even.

Food and a pretty lady, what's better than that combination?

"¡Hola!" I chimed as I walked through the door, making my way to the kitchen. I know I'll find someone there. "Julieta! Where's Pepa?"

   "She's in the market right now, she should be back soon though. Can you get Bruno? Mama's been needing him for a while, he's in his room." Julieta was frying some food while something was cooking in the oven.

   "Bruno?" I haven't talked to him much. To be honest, I don't think he wants to talk to me. "In his room? Do I just... walk and knock?"

   "Don't be nervous, he's just as nervous as you are."

   That's what makes me nervous. I don't want to startle or scare him, but I can't avoid him forever. "Why can't you do it?"

   She gestured to her cooking as if it was obvious. "Where's Mama Alma?"

   "Outside. She needs Bruno there. Don't be nervous, you'll do great." She reassured me with a warm smile.

   "Mhm... totally," I said as I left the kitchen, almost stopping in place when I ran into someone. "Sorry, I wasn't looking-- Pepa!" When I realized who it was, I pulled her into a quick hug.

   "Sorry I wasn't here when you arrived," she gave me an awkward laugh and smile.

   Oh god, her smile.

   It makes me feel some sort of way that I can't even begin to describe. She's so beautiful and so... perfect.

   "It's okay! Your hands are full, do you need help?" I looked at the bags hanging from her arms and the box she held in her hands.

"Thank you, but I should be okay, thank you though." Pepa bowed down a little to show respect the best she could.

That reminded me... that I couldn't have helped even if she said yes. I have to get Bruno.

"I'll see you in a bit. Everyone's busy and Bruno got summoned. I have to get him." I gave her finger guns before walking off, spinning around and making my way to the boy's room.

I knocked on the door. I didn't want to waltz right in, that'd be disrespectful. "Bruno?" I called out, watching as the doorknob rattled several times before it opened up.

"Hi," he stood there in front of me. His gaze was off to the side a little before looking me in the eyes. "Do you... need something?"

"Not me. Your mom wants you." The mention of her almost seemed to startle him.

"How long?"

"How long since she called for you? I don't know, I just got here." I shrugged as if it was no big deal.

"Thanks for getting me!" He ran down the stairs.

"She's outside!" I shouted, shaking my head as I closed his door before walking back to the kitchen. This boy needs to get his life together.
