Sitting on the bed of her hotel room, Seleana Zdunich stares at her phone unsure of what to do. This was supposed to be a wondrous time in her wife's family's homeland. The Lopez Family had started in Mexico and had a training school in the country.
But, like the SCW trip to Sweden, this one was not going according to that thought. And like that Sweden trip, the name Mercedes Vargas was at the root of the problem
At least, partially.
Sweden, there was no argument that Mercedes was the root as she had caused the incident between Seleana, as the guest referee, and Cassie Wolfe, Mercedes' opponent in the match being officiated by Seleana. The match had seen Selean a's return to her own home country of Sweden. Her parents, Fredrik and Jannicke had made the trip from Halmstad to Stockholm for the show just to see her. What should have been a triumphant homecoming of sorts had been tarnished by Mercedes Vargas baiting Seleana into trying to punch her and missing, the punch landing on Cassie and knocking her stone cold out instead. This had led to a months-long crusade where Cassie was mad at Seleana as if the statuesque Swedish woman had done it on purpose and Mercedes had done nothing.
What Mercedes had said to cause the punch had still not been made public knowledge.
Now, that situation had begotten another between Seleana and her wife, Christina. Again, in what should have been a triumphant homecoming, Seleana and Christina had come to Mexico and had an argument that was more than a slight disagreement between the two. Things had been said from both of them that had landed in ways neither had expected.
Or wanted…
Now, Seleana sat in a room by herself knowing she and her wife would likely not have any contact until the match they were both to be participants in on Sunday to name a new number one contender to the World Bombshell Champion. A battle royal that guaranteed they would have to make contact with each other whether they wanted to or not. Seleana looks at the floor of her room, wishing she'd brought someone else with her on this trip but also silently thanking what was listening that she had not brought Aurora and Elijah like she originally planned to.
Seleana Zdunich: Hon gör hönor av fjädrar!
Seleana stares at the picture of her wife that smiles back at her as her wallpaper on her phone and shakes her head sadly.
Seleana Zdunich: Hon tror att hon hjälpte mig att glida in på en räksmörgås!
She looks down, tears streaming down her face.
Seleana Zdunich: Hon tror att jag måste vara bakom flötet, så det är jag som bär hundens huvud.
As she starts to look back up, her rings. She answers the call, trying to pull herself together.
Seleana Zdunich: Heya, how's it?
The third Chavez sister, Marcy, answers her. This is the one who works as an actress in Mexico.
Marcy Chavez: Hola, hola, Chica, estás en Cancún. ¿No?
Seleana nods her head knowing that Marcy can't see her.
Seleana Zdunich: Sí, I have a match here on Sunday, Chickie.
She pauses.
Seleana Zdunich: Christina's in it.
Marcy goes quiet for a second.
Marcy Chavez: Estás bien, Chica? You sound… muy triste.
Seleana sighs.
Seleana Zdunich: Christina and I just argued. We…
Stopping short, the words start to catch in her throat.
Seleana Zdunich: I asked her about Mercedes Vargas, wonder if she fall off wagon…
She fights to keep from crying more and loses.
Seleana Zdunich: She tell me…
She shakes her head trying to stop the feelings from drowning her completely.
Seleana Zdunich: She tell me… I no….do….
Her voice cracks, the words catching in her throat again.
Seleana Zdunich: She no believe in me.
Marcy listens as Seleana loses it completely.
Marcy Chavez: Está bien, está bien, I'm coming up there, Chica.
The call ends and Seleana loses herself in the emotion of what Christina said, all but collapsing onto the bed as she sobs uncontrollably.
