🔥Carlos's POV 👑I couldn't sleep, so I decided to watch tv for a while. About half way through an episode of "Law and Order", Maria started to stir in her sleep.

She desperately needed out of the house, so I took her to the Sapphire with me, so she could teach Madre how to use the hoops and fabric.

She was swinging from a hoop, hanging upside down, flipping up, going to her feet and swinging. She was amazing to watch.After about 45 minutes though, I made her get down. "I don't want you wearing yourself out...Go get a drink, a shower, and come rest a while in my office....I'll take you to lunch after while, if you feel like eating."I was sitting in my office checking the books, when Mad
