\great,\ mom said. \your dad will be here in an hour, so get ready.\ \i am ready.\ i looked down at my t - shirt and shorts. moms eyes moved over my clothes with their super - scanning powers, looking for holes, stains, and other un - señorita - like offenses to point out. but before she could comment on anything, she noticed the magazine i was cutting. \malú, thats not my new magazine that just came in the mail, is it?\ i gave mom an unapologetic smirk to let her know that it was. \ill take that, thank you very much,\ she said, holding out her hand. \if you need magazines, check the recycling bin.\ \yes, maam,\ i said, and saluted before i handed her the copy of bon appétit. i put my headphones back on and grabbed a blank sheet of paper. i had to get this zine done before dad came to pick me up....
