“Tomorrow's the day, Hayley.” I reminded her.
She tilted her her back and kissed me.
“Our one ano anniversary.” She said as she pulled back.
“Hayles I kind of brought you here so we could be alone and tell you something.”
“Yeah?”
“I amor you Hayley.”
To my relief a smile spread across her face. “I amor you, too.”

The memory replayed my mind over and over.
That was the dia before our anniversary. The dia I first told Hayley I loved her. The dia she first told me she loved me. That was the dia before Hayley's death. That was almost a ano ago.
“Josh.” My moms voice came from outside my door breaking through my thoughts. “It's time for school. If you don't wake up now you won't make it on time.”
“Just leave me alone.” Leave me in peace with thoughts of my angel.
“But school –”
“Mom I just don't feel up to going today ok?” I replied annoyed.
She sighed. “Fine honey. Just come on out and get some breakfast.”
I reluctantly dragged myself to the table. I sat in front of one.the three plates of comida my mom had set down.
My mom and dad both sat down and began eating their food. I grabbed my fork and started to chop my eggs into pieces.
“Josh this has to stop!” My mom screamed breaking the silence.
I looked up at her in complete shock. “What?”
“You've been like a zombie ever since Hayley died. I feel like you died with her.”
“I don't know what you mean mom. I'm fine. Same Josh I've always been.”
She shook her head, “No! We both know that's not true. You keep skipping school, I have to litterly drag you out of that room of yours, and even then you don't say a word to your father and I, and you barely eat anymore. I just feel like you've changed. It's like I don't even know you anymore.”
“Hayley was my girlfriend mom. I was in amor with her. I still am.”
“I know, but it's been a year.”
“Actually it won't be a ano until Friday.” I corrected her.
“Do you see what I mean?”
“Could you just get to the point?” I asked annoyed.
“I think it's about time you moved on. Hayley is dead, and she's not coming back. There's a girl who moved in down the street. I think you two would really hit it off.”
“No mom. It's just too soon.”
“One date. That's all I'm asking for. If you don't want to see her again after that then ok, but please just give Jenna a chance.”
“One encontro, data and that's it.”
She tilted her her back and kissed me.
“Our one ano anniversary.” She said as she pulled back.
“Hayles I kind of brought you here so we could be alone and tell you something.”
“Yeah?”
“I amor you Hayley.”
To my relief a smile spread across her face. “I amor you, too.”
