"thanks Oscar" I glanced at him while getting out, still thinking about what happened earlier with the prophets

"ay you sure your okay?" he asked raising his brow

"I'm sure" I nodded and shut the car door, turning to walk back towards my house

after I closed the front door I listened to the rumble of his impala as it drove down the street

"hi mija!" I looked to the couch to see my abuelita, eating her favorite ice cream and watching her favorite show

"hey abuelita" I smiled taking off my shoes and joining her on the couch, she pulled me into a side hug handing me the spoon to get some ice cream

"I cant believe your going to be 18 tomorrow" she squealed squeezing me abit tighter

"me neither" I smiled starting to feel the excitement for tomorrow

" has ava talked to you about having a party here?" I asked handing the icecream back to her
after eating a scoop
she didn't respond for a moment
"oh yes she has, don't you worry it's all sorted" she nodded

"yay, get some good sleep yeah?" I said standing up

"love you mija" she called out as I walked up the stairs

"love you too" I called back laughing

after changing into a baggy shirt I put on music and tried to fall asleep, but it took forever.
20 minutes passed and I still couldn't even keep my eyes shut so I decided to put up the fairy lights scattered across my dresser, that I've been stalling putting up.

I stood on my bed pinning the wires to my roof, and turned them on when I was done

they were the last thing I remember seeing before I finally fell asleep.

I woke up to the smell of food filling my room, I checked the time to see that it was 9
I LOVE waking up at 9 because it's the perfect balance between late and early

it took like 10 minutes for me to actually get up but eventually I did, slowly making my way downstairs in the same thing I slept in

"oh my.." I gasped seeing all the food on the table, then my gaze switched to ava and my abuelita grabbing plates

"HAPPY BIRTHDAYYY" ava ran over squealing, engulfing me in a hug, she was still in her pajamas too
she must've come over really early

after she let go I walked over to abuelita giving her a huge hug too

"thank youuu" I said quietly, squeezing her slightly.

"happy birthday beautiful" avas mum smiled handing me a little purple box

"you didn't have to"
I gave her a hug before opening the small box

inside it was a small pendant with photo of me and ava when we were babies inside it
a photo of my 4th birthday.
"thank you" I smiled
that day was more than perfect. I still remember every detail
