I'm Not Going! (2)

She pulled her phone out of her pocket.
"Hello?"
"Ria, it's mom i'm sorry for being so... angry yesterday I was in a big hurry! Anyways, I left a note for Santa Clara, just tell her that i'm sorry but I wont be able to help her move in next door. Also," Ria rolled her eyes she just wanted her mom to shut up, and leave her alone. She already felt like her mother was drifting far away, she was not even the same lady she once was. "Lastnight, I wanted to wake you up, but you looked so...peaceful so please forgive me-"
"Look, it's fine but why didn't you tell us you were leaving?"
"Well Hon, I didn't know myself. Larry," Ria rolled her eyes. "called and even had his plane ready for me at Lift-Off Square near your Uncle Adrian's and Aunt Paiges.
"Okay, well see you friday, by-"
"Oh! About friday it seems we will not be back til after New Years-"
"Mom it's CHRISTMAS BREAK, what about YOUR children? What about Christmas?!" Ria said a little loud, she watched as her brother walked back over to the truck.
"Oh dear, here it goes. Okay, your father is coming tomorrow to get you and Danny-"
"NO!" She practically yelled, banging her hand on her wheel.
"Too late, no butts about it. He WILL be there, and by GOD, Ria if ya'll arent in Little Horn by tomorrow i'll drive down and take you myself! End of Discussion." -click- She never answered anymore, and when she told Danny he was just as upset and miserable.

"Hola chicos!" Santa Clara, or Santy walked in with some groceries in her hands.
"Hey." They both said monotonously
"Que pasa?" She asked plopping the groceries down on the island.
"I'm going upstairs." Danny said as he sluggishly walked up each step to the game room.
"Um, were leaving tomorrow to go stay with my dad."
"Oh, yeah I heard Jerry is coming to get you two. It'll be a good experience."
"Santy, why am I, well why are we supposed to be nice to the man who left my mom for a slutty makeup model who doesn't know a vacuum from a broom-?"
Santa Clara knew better, she knew more of the story than what ,Natalie, Ria and Danny's mom had told them. Jerry was a good guy, and the reason they didn't like Jerry was from folklore they were told long ago.
"Ay muchachita! That was so long ago, time to eh, what you say, build a freakin bridge and walk over it, right?" She chuckled now putting some onions in a pot.
Ria smiled fiddling with the house phone, but still feeling so cold and dreading the next day.
"Tell you what, if you REALLY want to come back to the house I will go get you myself-"
"Thank-"
"ONE CONDITION," She said holding up her index finger.
"Anything."
"You have to stay there for a whole week out of the three you really are supposed to stay for, got it?"
Ria mulled it over in her head, and then agreed.
"Okay, i'll call you when lunch is done."
"Okay, by the way my mom said she can't help you move in now."
"It's okay, I saw that one coming. My son Ricardo is coming to help and ofcourse mi amor, Ramone, and probably the whole family."
"Okay, thanks again."
"Anything for you and Danny."

"Ria, mom left a voicemail on my phone and told me to tell you that she loves us and Larry and her are having a really good time,okay?"
"Whatever, she's a bitch all she cares about is Larry, and Larry's way of life."
"Okay, as long as we agree." Ria smiled and got ready for bed she was not happy about the next morning, and she knew Danny wasn't either.
