We were brought out of our trance when the doorbell rang. I got down from the stool and went toward the stove while Shane goes to get the door. 

 Shane: "Hey Juan, What’s up man?" I hear Shane saying. 

 Juan: "Hey Shane! I see you’re all cleaned up. You didn’t look too good last night! Man I had your cell phone, ’cause last night you dropped it on the floor during the fight. Girls really like this shit. I don’t know what you do but girls are just buzzing it UP man! Do you mind if I take some o’ em?" 

 ’so girls buzzing her cell huh! that just got my temper to the roof’ Who the Fuck does she think she is! 

 Shane: " huh..yeah! thanks for getting my phone! You take all of ‘em man!" 

 ’she’s into one-night stands I see, fuck ‘em leave ‘em…policy’ This is making me really really mad! Oh shit…I accidentally put some extra spice in the preparation. 

 Shane: "Hey Juan, meet my friend Carmen"

 Juan: "Carmen? What are you doing here?"

 Shane: "Wait you guys know each other?" Shane looks perplexed. Then it seems to dawn on her.

 Shane: "of course you guys look similar..you’re siblings right?"

 Carmen: "You’re absolutely right Shane" I say curtly…and I give Juan the look…he understood immediately that we would have to talk…

 Juan: "I think I am gonna take off now. See ya at Wax Shane!" 

 Shane: "See ya dude!" 

 Then Shane turns to me and grins…

 Shane: "Oh that was your brother? he’s the nicest dude around! We hang out sometimes.." 

 Carmen: "Yeah I know he’s a good kid, but he should stay out of trouble" 

 Shane: " Oh he always tries…he tells me that he screwed up badly before and if he messes up again then his sister won’t leave him alive and now I know who this sister is…" and She gives me a half smile. I cannot help but smile back to her. I really want to but I don’t ask her or say anything about the "girls buzzing up her phone thing"…

 Carmen: "here you go your food is done" and I put some of the super spicy rice and chicken on a plate and I fix another plate for myself. I am used to spicy food and I love spicy food. The more the spice the better I like.
