Hiro's new love

Miguel Rivera

(M) *walking down hall* hiro?

(H) hey Miguel

(M) where are you headed?

(H) cafeteria to go get food, we're you going the same way?

(M) I'm not used to everything in this school, I have tried memorizing the map but yes I am since I haven't eaten

(H) well follow me *walking with miguel*

(M) so you work here?

(H) yes I do, after my graduation three years ago I was offered a job by Alistair Keri

(M) nice

(H) where are you from? I hadn't seen you around before in San fransokiyo

(M) I'm not from here I'm from a Mexican village of Saint Cecilia, I grew up with relatives who hated music even the sound of wind blown into a bottle my grandmother would chase me down because her mama stopped liking music after her father was killed but what her mother thought was he ran out on them

(H) oh geez that's pretty crazy

(M) it gets crazier

(H) *sitting at table* what else happened?

(M) well theirs a bridge in the village, when you cross it to go visit dead relatives but whenever I was in the search for who mama cocos papa was I recognized a photo of this guitar it was thought to be the great Ernesto de la Cruz who turned out to be the man who killed Hector mama cocos papa

(H) oh shit that's crazy but how did you learn all of that?

(M) I played the guitar in Ernesto grave spot and I walked into the land of the dead

(H) so the guitar killed you?

(M) no no it didn't, I was taken to the land of the dead but I was still human and had to hide that I was with face paint, after the whole journey with Hector the truth was discovered Ernesto killed Hector, I had to save Hector by getting mama coco to remember him and put his photo up in the shrine so he could stay in the land of the dead since once your forgotten you will be gone from there

(H) that's kinda a crazy life you live

(M) things had gotten better since Hector was saved, but mama coco passed away, she was reunited with her papa and mama, my family liked music again and my little sister was born

(H) that's sad and great

(M) yeah, I was in the looks for a job and saw this one from Abigail

(H) what did Abigail need you to do since you didn't really mention it?

(M) help teach robots music, so I'd technically be a music teacher but to a bunch of robots

(H) I can help with software programing it's easy for me but helping their software adapt to music would work out and you'd have an easier way of teaching them

(M) that sounds great hiro thank you

(H) it's no problem
