Later that night, Abuelita allowed us to play video games. I let Soos pick his favorite game, so of course I was loosing.
"Yes! I win again!" Soos said after winning the fifth round.
I put the paddle down.
"Do you wanna pick the game now?" he asked.
I smiled. My primo was the best.
"Yeah," I said.
After a while of playing more video games, Grandma sent us off to bed.
"Good night, Abuelita," Soos said before going back to bed.
"Love you, Abuelita," I said, hugging her goodnight.
As we lay in our beds that night, I said, "Soos?"
"Hm," he replied.
"You wanna go adventuring tomorrow?"
"Hm-hum," he mumbled.
I smiled. "Okay, thanks, Soos." I closed my eyes, and before I knew it I drifted off into a deep sleep.
...
"Soos, wake up," I said the next morning, shaking him.
"Uh," he rolled over and rubbed his eyes. "What time is it, dude?"
"Seven a.m." I replied. "Early to bed, early to rise!"
Soos groaned. "Why are we getting up so early?" he asked.
"Because," I said. "We have to get ready to go on our adventura."
Soos groaned again and rolled onto his stomach. "Ten more minutes," he said sleepily.
"No!" I said. "Diez minuets more of sleep is diez minutes wasted! We've got to get ready so we can leave right after breakfast."
He groaned a third time. "Fine," he said. "I'm getting up."
"Great!" I said. "Grab a backpack. We'll need a first aid kit, three flashlights, two sandwiches, four water bottles, extra jackets, notebooks, pens, pencils, and as many cameras as we can find. We may be gone a while. I'll go make the sandwiches."
I sneaked out of our room to the kitchen. In the fridge there wasn't a lot of food, but enough to make two sandwiches. I pulled out the stuff and began making them.
Soos stuck his head out of his room's doorway. "Uh, Jerri, dude," he said, "I don't think we have a first aid kit."
"What? Sure we do," I said. "Everyone has a first aid kit somewhere. I'll ask Abuelita."
"Oh, and, uh, I don't have my own camera," Soos added.
I sighed. "Okay, then, we'll use mine."
"Okay," he said. "Did you finish the sandwiches?"
"Almost," I replied. "Do you mind getting water bottles if you're done?"
"Dude, we're not gonna be gone that long, are we?"
"Uh, maybe an hour or two," I said. "...or three. Depends on what we find."
He shook his head before going back into our room.
After maybe ten minutes Soos and I were all packed and ready to go.
"Instead of waiting for Abuelita, let's just leave her a note," I suggested.
Soos shrugged. "Whatever, dude. You're in charge."
We wrote Abuelita a note saying we were out exploring for the day and we would be home for dinner at the longest. After writing it came the hard part: leaving it on her nightstand without waking her up.
Her door creaked as I opened it. "Shhh!" Soos warned. I slowly crept in her room and tip-toed to her nightstand.
"Don't wake her up," Soos whispered.
"Shhh!!" I replied as Abuelita turned over in her sleep. I gently set the note on her nightstand by her bed where she would see it. I then slowly and carefully turned around and tip-toed back out of the room.
"Good job!" Soos congratulated me after I closed the door.
"Thanks, Soos," I replied, "now let's go!"
