Primos

---

I get up every night

at four in the morning

to take a Ieak.

You aII know how smaII

my bladder is.

But when I got back in bed,

YoIanda was awake.

Which is odd,

because she never wakes up at night.

So I ask her,

''Honey, are you okay?''

And she says,

''I'm a nervous wreck.''

''Well, that's normal.

I'm nervous too.

We're worried about the wedding.''

Then she starts crying.

So l hug her and kiss her,

she hugs me and kIsses me back,

and then I get aroused.

We had decided not to have sex

the week before the wedding,

lIke a game,

so we'd be dying for it

and f*** Iike wiId animaIs

on our wedding night.

The point is she needed

to Iet off some steam.

So l stroke her, I kiss her,

I start undressing her...

but then she stops me and says,

''I'm sorry, Diego, I can't.''

''You can't what?'', I ask.

''I've been thinking about things

for months.''

''What things?''

''Our relationship,'' she says.

''Something isn't right.

No, something has neverbeen right.

We've looked the other way

because we Iove each other

and you know

I can't stand hurting you.

That's why,

if I'm making this decIsion,

it's because my mind is made up.''

Okay.

Then she goes and says,

''Diego, I can't marry you.

I can't. I don't want to.''

And I didn't cry...

I didn't...

Because I was convinced

it wouId pass,

that she'd change her mind

and everything wouId be fine.

So I didn't pressure her.

I didn't.

I was reasonabIe, understanding

and I even consoIed her.

Because she was such a mess.

She crIed and cried.

You'd think l was the one

who had dumped her.

We agreed she'd teII her guests

and I'd teII mine.

As you can see,

that dIdn't work out.

So I'm afraid I have to ask you

to Ieave the church now,

because I'd Iike a few minutes

to myseIf.

I'm okay.

Thank you aII for comIng.

Let it out, cousin.

Cry if you need to.

You're furious. Let it out.

-She might show up.

-Shut up.

I don't want her to come...

Yes, yes, yes.

Better?

-He's in bad shape.

-Very bad.

Don't get aII psychosomatic.

I know you.

It's okay.

We're backing up our cousin.

-Okay.

-Fine.

I'm okay.

What are you doing?

Don't take those in front of me.

Give me those piIIs.

No piIIs.

-Give me my piIIs back.

-Are you nuts?

Stop whining about your piIIs.

-Quit screwing around.

-You want your piIIs?

-You want them?

-Yes, thank you.

F*** your piIIs!

For God's sake, stop fIghting!

I'm sick of you!

-Sorry.

-Sorry.

Those damn piIIs...

Jesus!

Over my dead boner.

I don't mean to make things worse,

but I think you rushed into it.

You didn't evaIuate the risk.

Know what I mean?

You picked your father's birthday

to get marrIed.

To honor his memory.

Great, very commendabIe.

You know what? Good.

You saved yourseIf months,

even years with a bimbo

who'd have dumped you anyway.

lt all comes down to this:

She was on the rag, man.

What are you taIking about?

Are you thinking with

your head or your ass?

-With my heart. Right here.

-Pride and fury, man.

Where are you goIng?

-I'II get Toa.

-Sit down, damn it.

I think we need some female InsIght.

Forget It, this is between us.

Toa can bIow me.

-Excuse me.

-What?

Toa bIows onIy me.

And with pIenty of Iove.

He meant figurativeIy.

-The things I have to put up with.

-Just in case.

You see how sweet cousin Rosie Iooks

since she dumped her boyfriend?

I never Iiked cousin RosIe.

She's too sIeazy for you.

You need a girl who's Ioving,

lIke my Toa. I'll go get her.

Look, I'II go get her

and she'II bIow you right here

where we had Sunday schooI.

PIease...

He means cousin Rosie.

You're pushing it.

You were madIy in Iove with her.

ExactIy 10 years ago today,

during the IocaI fiestas,

This is something eIse.

and starting something new.

-Cousin, are you with me?

-I'm with you.

We're taking a step forward.

That's right.

Let out your rage.
