𝖎𝖙'𝖘 𝖔𝖓𝖊 𝖎𝖓 𝖙𝖍𝖊 𝖆𝖋𝖙𝖊𝖗𝖓𝖔𝖔𝖓 and Oscar left out early, he woke me up and told me he was leaving but soon after I fell back to sleep. When I woke up, I took a shower and got dressed in a grey crop top and some black leggings, I let coco inside, I gave her some food and water before making myself some breakfast.

It was kinda odd how quiet it was in the house without Cesar and Oscar—not to mention kinda boring but I managed for two hours. I'm outside in the backyard with Coco, I'm playing fetch with her only she doesn't give me the ball back, I have to get the ball from her and throw it again,

I did this for about 20 minutes before I bored again, I throw the ball and coco chased after it. When she caught the ball I didn't bother taking it away from her, I sat down on a crate and huffed out air. I looked around the backyard— it had a lot of random things just laying around, I noticed a skateboard—I mean I knew there was skateboard was back here— I've never seen anyone use it before— whoever owns it I bet they wouldn't mind me taking it for a ride.

I whistled "come here coco!" I called her, she followed me inside as I grabbed her leash before walking out the front door, with coco on her leash in one hand and the skateboard in the other— Now I have no idea how to ride a skateboard but I'm so bored I'll learn how to ride one.

I fell on my ass a couple of times but it's all in keeping balance and bending your knees—but don't quote me— I'm starting learning, once I got most of it down. I held Coco's leash while riding the skateboard— at first, I thought she would run to fast or wouldn't run at all but she didn't run too fast nor too slow.

I was riding around the neighborhood but I guess I took a wrong turn because my surroundings didn't look familiar. But I didn't stop riding in hopes I'll find something that looked familiar, soon I stopped riding to let coco take a break from running

As I was walking I hear footsteps and I felt a tap on my shoulder, I turned around to see Justin, I rolled my eyes "ugh" I scoffed as continued walking and he followed, "that's not very nice" he says, "what are you doing walking by yo' self ?" He asked, I give him a dirty look and put his hands up in defense "I'm sorry, I just thought you never went anywhere without a Santos following you" he says.

I don't respond to him but he continued talk to me and he was still following me, I put down the skateboard before riding on it, to escape him but he resorts to jogging alongside me "speaking of which when did you start hanging out with those Santos?" He asked, "leave me alone, Justin" I say, "I am just asking you a question"  he says

"you know this is harassment right?" I asked, "harassment? I don't think so" he says, "yeah maybe your right— maybe this is you being a pain in the ass" I say, "ouch, that hurt my feelings," he says

"good—now leave me alone" I say, "Hey look I'm just an innocent man, walking to my house" he says pointing ahead making stop riding the skateboard and in freeze in place—here's what you need to know about Justin and I— other than us being each other exes, we were neighbors. And I haven't seen my house-I mean my dad's house since I first ran away

I look at the familiar house in front of me though it looked run down, it stilled looked the same, my eyes lowered when I noticed the memorial in front of it of my brother, "I can't believe this is still here" I say

"I took care of it while you were gone" Justin spoke up, I looked at the blue happy sweet 16 birthday balloon that I gave him tied to the fence beside his picture, I remember the day I give it to him— all my friends kept trying to convince me to have 16th birthday party—but I didn't want to, It didn't feel right to do it without him especially since he's been planning this party since we were 13.
