50 Chapter 50: Solo un sue?o (2/2)
”You can turn around now. I'll leave.”
He walks past me and a familiar scent fills my nose,
'Where have I seen him before?'
”Wait!”
He faces me,
”Yes?”
”I uh, I don't know which room Lina sais she was going to.”
”She's in her parlor on the top floor, I could show you if ya like.”
”I think i'll manage, thanks.”
”Anytime.”

”So what do we think of this one?”
I do a slow spin in the dress,
”I don't know, I like it but...”
”But what?”
”It's a little tight in this area.”
”What? Oh your boobs. They're big as hell, of course it's gonna be a sung fit.”
”Oh my god, can you not?”
”Hmm, whatever i'll change.”
”Aww, you're the best!”
I twirl around in the dress and look at myself in the mirror,
'This is really happening, i'm getting married!'
”Ok mama, you can change back into your clothes and i'll work on the finishing touches.”
My phone buzzes in my pocket,
”Hello?”
”Yo, hermanita.”
”Oh hey Carlos, what's up?”
Lina unzips the dress and I hand it to her.
”What time you plan on rolling in?”
I pull on my shorts,
”Is Ricky making you ask me?”
”He wouldn't stop bitching.”
”Hm, put me on speaker,”
A beep comes from the other side of the phone,
”Ricky, will you calm the fuck down?! I'll see you when I see you. Chill the fuck out.”
”Kaz I-”
I hang up the phone before he can finish his sentence.
”Kazzie, I have to get to work on this right now so my brother'll take you home.”
”Which one?”
”Well considering that Joaquin's the only one home right now. I texted him earlier, he's waiting outside.”
”Mhm, well gimme my hug Lili.”
She squeezes me and gives me a quick peck on my cheek,
”I can't thank you enough for this Lili.”
”Don't mention it babe, now take your cute ass home.”
I give her one last hug and make my way back down the stairs and sure enough her brother is waiting for me by the front door.
I follow him outside and into a nice luxury car. It look far more expensive than the one Lina was driving. With its leather interior design, big shiny rims and tinted windows.
”She's a beauty, isn't she?”
”A Bugatti La Voiture Noire; 1,500 hp and 1,180 pound-foot of torque that propels it from 0 to 60 mph in 2.5 seconds. It has a quad turbo W-16 engine with a top speed of 261 mph. Their worth almost 19 million dollars.”
He stares at me in disbelief,
”How the hell do you know that?”
He opens the door for me and I slide inside the beautiful car,
”Ricky has three that he keep the garage. He treats they like their his babies.”
He starts up the car and we take off. The purring engine sounds lively and ready to take the road.
”I guess I care for them too...maybe a little bit more than he does.”
”Can't say I blame ya, who wouldn't want one of these babies?”
We spent the whole car ride talking about all the different kinds of cars we liked and which ones we think would make good racers.
”Well, we're here.”
He lets me out if the car and rolls down the window,
”Thanks for the ride home Joaquin.”
”No problem. Give me a ring if you need anything.”
He scribbles down his number on my hand and pulls away.
”Well well, look who finally decides to show up!”
'Shit, I was hoping that he would be sleep somewhere.'
I spin around and meet Ricky's snarl,
”Before you say anything just go back upstairs. I really need to talk to you.”
He glares at Joaquin then leaves.
'What was that all about?'
