HIS KIDS

THE MOVE

LUPES POV

WHEN I GOT HOME MARIA AND SOME OF HER FRIENDS WERE ALMOST DONE PACKING EVERYTHING AND I CALLED A MOVING TRUCK SO WE COULD LOAD OUR STUFF IN IT AND START HEADING TO OUR NEW DESTINATION, WHEN THE MOVING TRUCK GOT HERE THEY STARTED TO PUT THE BOXES, FURNITURE AND EVERYTHING THAT WE WERE GOING TO TAKE WITH US TO TRUCK. IN LESS THAN TWO HOURS WE WERE DONE PACKING AND PUTTING THE THINGS IN THE MOVING TRUCK EXCEPT A SUIT CASE FOR ME AND ONE FOR MARIA, I GAVE THE NEW ADDRESS TO THE DRIVER OF THE MOVING TRUCK AND THEY HEADED ON THEIR WAY PULLING MY CAR WITH THE MOVING TRUCK SINCE WE WERE GOING TO FLY TO TEXAS SO WE COULD GET THERE FASTER.

MARIAS FRIEND MIKE GAVE US A RIDE TO THE AIRPORT AND THEY SAID THEIR GOODBYES BEFORE WISHING US GOOD LUCK AND A SAFE TRIP, WE CHECKED OUR BAGS IN AND WE HEADED TO THE WAITING AREA UNTIL THEY CALLED OUR FLIGHT. WHEN THEY CALLED OUR FLIGHT WE HEADED TO THE DOOR THEY MENTIONED AND WE WERE TAKEN TO OUR SEATS, WE SAT DOWN AND TIDED OURSELVES IN AND CLOSED OUR EYES TO REST FOR AWHILE DURING THE PLANE RIDE AND WITHOUT NOTICING WHAT I WAS DOING I PLACED MY HANDS ON MY FLAT STOMACH.

WE ARRIVED TO TEXAS AND WE GOT DOWN OF THE PLANE AND HEADED TO GET OUR SUIT CASE BEFORE HEADING TO THE ENTRANCE AND GETTING A CAB TO THE HOUSE I HAD JUST BOUGHT, I CALLED THE REALESTATE AND TOLD HIM THAT WE WERE HEADING TO THE HOUSE AND SHOULD BE THERE WITHIN THE NEXT FEW MINUTES TO WHAT HE ANSWERED THAT HE WOULD BE THERE TO GREET US WITH THE PAPER WORK I HAD TO SIGN AND THE KEYS TO THE HOUSE. WHEN WE ARRIVE WE SAW THE REALATOR AND I PAID THE TAXI AND GOT OUT, THE REALATOR OPENED THE DOOR OF THE HOUSE AND SHOWED US AROUND BEFORE I SIGNED THE PAPERS AND THEN GOT THE KEYS TO THE HOUSE.

WE HAD EVERYTHING ALREADY ACTIVATED, SO WE WENT TO THE STORE AND BOUGHT SOME GROCERIES BUT BEFORE THAT WE WENT TO A TATTOO SHOP AND MARIA GOT OUR PARENTS NAMES TATTOOED ON HER. WHEN WE WERE DONE WE SAW THAT THERE WAS A HIGH SCHOOL NEAR OUR HOUSE AND DECIDED THAT I WOULD LET HER STAY HOME FOR ATLEAST TWO WEEKS AND THEN I WOULD GO SIGN HER UP SO SHE COULD CONTINUE HER EDUCATION, I THEN STARTED TO LOOK FOR A JOB BUT COULDNT FIND ANYTHING THAT WAS SIMILAR TO WHAT I WAS DOING IN CALIFORNIA SO MARIA SUGGESTED I OPEN MY OWN BUISNESS AND SHE STARTED TO LOOK FOR A BUILDING THAT WAS FOR SALE WITH EVERYTHING WE WOULD NEED TO OPEN UP A BEAUTY SALON.
