Phriends Against Physics

Chapter 2

Jimmy turned and glared at his wife in a cute and silly manner. "Now how was that not flirting? He wants to come over and talk to you?!" Giggling, Foamy replied, "Okay, you clearly weren't listening! He said he wants to talk to both of us! I think the only reason he called me is because I am just way more smarterer than you are and am much more adept at handling crises." Jimmy feigned being offended, making Foamy giggle. "Plus, you know Milo better than I do. I really don't know him very well at all, but you've said he's, like, one of the nicest dudes ever." Jimmy considered this, then replied, "Yeah, you're right, I did say that. Yeah. Okay. You're probably right, he wouldn't do anything petty like try to steal away my hot young wife." Foamy smirked and said, "I'll call him back and tell him to get on the next flight from L.A.'' Foamy stood up, her phone in her hand (it was on speakerphone so that any flirting would immediately be shut down by Jimmy) and waited for Milo to pick up. He answered, and Foamy said, "Hey, Milo! Jimmy and I would love to have you come hang out here in New York. Some of my friends have just moved out for college, so we have some extra space if you would like to stay. I'm also learning how to make zucchini crap if you're into that." Milo replied, "I'm so into zucchini crap, you have no idea! I've been trying to master that recipe for years but haven't had any luck." Foamy laughed and said, "Are you mashing your zucchini well enough? Because sometimes I really have to get in there and mash it real good." Jimmy found a stray cue card on the floor from one of his shows, scribbled something on it, and aimed it at Foamy. Get to the point, Foam, read the cue card. So, after about twenty minutes of zucchini crap talk, Foamy and Milo confirmed their plans. Milo would be flying out to New York tomorrow morning and bringing extra zucchini. "Finally, you guys are done talking zucchini! Now I'm hungry," Jimmy said as he walked out of the bedroom and down the stairs to the kitchen. "Jackie! You're home!" Jimmy exclaimed as Jackie turned around and faced her best friend's husband. "Hey Jim!" The two embraced in the kitchen for probably thirty minutes before Jackie smelled burning zucchini. She pulled away, shouting, "MY ZUCCHINI CRAP!" The zucchini crap she had been making burned! Hearing all of the commotion in the kitchen, Foamy ran downstairs screaming, "What is going on down here?!" Seeing her best friend for the first time in months standing in her kitchen, Foamy screamed at the top of her lungs and ran to embrace Jackie. "What are you doing here? Are you on break or something?" Jackie wiped away her happy tears and announced, "No. I am moving back in!" Foamy, Jackie and Jimmy all stared at each other, processing what had just been uttered. Once the processing was complete, the three friends started screaming and jumping up and down for joy. "But wait," Foamy interjected, "how are you going to live here and still go to school at Ham Sandwich U?" Ham Sandwich University was a prestigious private university located in the great state of Minnesota, in the capital city of St. Paul. "HSU was a great chapter in my life, but I missed our old life here in New York, so I've decided to move back and transfer to Some University!" Foamy couldn't believe what she had just heard. "You're coming to SU???" Foamy and Jackie continued jumping up and down. They would be going to school together! Jackie stopped jumping and added, "But wait. I have even better news. Naomi is also going to be moving in!" Foamy literally fainted. This was just too much excitement. Peeling her friend off the floor, Jackie continued, "When I told her about my plans, she decided to follow the flag here to New York with me! And the best part is...she is also transferring to SU!" More screaming. More jumping. "Oh my gosh, so she is leaving St. Tomboy?" The University of Saint Tomboy was another prestigious university in St. Paul, Minnesota. "Yup," Jackie replied, "I told her all about our epic adventures and how we narrowly escaped Broberg that one time during freshman year of high school, and how we used to live here with all of our friends until Maggie, Alyssa, Rachel, Charlie and I all moved out." Foamy got sad for a moment at the mention of all of the OG friends. She remembered how much she had cried the day they all moved out and enrolled at their respective universities. Foamy missed them all so much, even Charlie! Then, happiness washed over her as she pictured the future. Foamy, Jackie and Naomi would all be going to Some University together, in addition to being roommates! This was going to be so much fun!
