I need help understanding the meaning so that I can finish the story with some idea of what is going on. I have read a lot of Spanish literature, but this is my first class in Contemporary Mexican literature so the language is VeRy new to me.

Thanks!!

Bueno, cabrón, no tengo por qué aguantar tu mal humor. Ya sé a qué vienes, pero de una vez te digo que todavia no sale nada. Pero ya mero, ya mero--a cada uno de Los Usuales, les decía algo distinto, dependiendo de cómo los había semblanteado antes.

Well, ****, I don't have to put up with your bad mood. Already I know to what you come, but one time I tell you that still nothing leaves. ???? to each one of The Usuales, I told them something distinct, depending on how they had been ????? before.

I am so lost!!

Well, *****I do not have to put up with your bad mood. I already know what you come for, but I'll tell you, better now than later, that still nothing has come up. But soon, soon-. He (or she) would tell each one of The Usuales something different, depending on the way he had previously sized them up.
