| Alexis stared after him for a moment before muttering a quiet, embarrassed apology to the Principal and rushed after Cristobal. "We're going home, Cristobal." she said, voice hurt and stiff. |

| “Why so you can just yell at me there? This is all yours and dad’s stupid fault anyway.” Cris hissed. |

| "THE CAR, CRISTOBAL." Alexis said, her voice raising for the first time as she pointed at the exit, angry upset tears building already. |

| Cris puffed, but didn’t argue, storming out of the building and going to stomp off towards the car. |

| Alexis followed after him, biting her bottom lip hard as she unlocked the car with her keypad and went to get in. |

| Cris flopped into his seat, but turned his whole body to face away from Alexis, arms folding over his chest. |

| Alexis started the car and went to start out of the school parking lot after taking a moment to pull herself together. "I don't know what is going on with you Cristobal. You've been rude and cold to both me and your father at home or anywhere. I get you're a teenager and maybe things at school are not great but none of that makes this okay." |

| “It wouldn’t be like this if it wasn’t for you and dad.” Cris huffed. |

| Alexis rubbed at her temple, staring at the road. "What are you even talking about, Cris?" she asked, frustrated. |

Cris fussily worked his bottom lip. He wasn’t sure really, rationally, where alll of these feelings came from, but he knew he felt confused and a mess inside, especially with everything regarding his relationship with Alexis.
It had become glaringly obvious as the years went on that he wasn’t hers. He was the only one of his siblings with blond hair, those light green eyes, and a smattering of freckles on his nose. He stuck out like a sore thumb and it was because he was the odd man out. He wasn’t Alexis’s.
“I’m...I’m just sick of you pretending to be my mom! You’re not my mom!” He sputtered. |

| Alexis' hand tightened on the steering wheel and she was quiet for a moment. "Well. Cristobal. You're my son and I'm not pretending. So I'm sorry i-if that's how you feel because quite frankly, that really hurts. I've raised you, I've been there for you every single step of the way. You are my son and you will always be my son." she said firmly, despite the crack in her voice. |

Cris tightened his jaw and turned away again, refusing to let the guilt twisting in his stomach get the better of him.
“I want to talk to her. My real mom.” He said, obstinate. |

| Alexis felt her teeth clench to hold back upset and hurt tears. She was frustrated and just.. a bit crushed. She had expected this in some form, with the troubles and confusion that came with this for a child and with him being a hormonal teenager but it still hurt. "Fine, Cris. I have never said you couldn't speak with Oribella." she said, voice shaking a bit but she cleared her throat. "But you're going to have to speak to your father about that first." |

| “Why? He can’t tell me no. I’m allowed to talk to her. She’s my mom.” Cris huffed. |

| "Because that's his decision rather you like it or not, Cris. You are still a child, a teenager yes, but a child and Oribella gave full custody to your father." Alexis said, as calmly and patiently as she could. "So you can drop the attitude." |
