"The yanagi, or yanagiba, depending on the region, is a knife used exclusively for cutting shashimi"Dinner was surprisingly going  well  "I picked up this bad boy on my first trip to Okinawa. Voilá. The famous Larusso ponso toro" He put the plate with the fish in front of Kyler

"Uh, no, thanks. I don't like sushi" and there it was, the feeling of wanting to smash her head against the table

"Uh...Are you sure you just don't wanna try a little piece?"

"It melts in your mouth"

"No, fish kinda grosses me out"

'And he didn't think of saying that 15 minutes ago when my uncle brought the fish?'

"No, you like fish. What about fish sticks at school" Halley didn't know if she wanted to run away or stay just to see how it would turn out. It was taking everything in her to not laugh

"Oh, yeah. Fish sticks are dope. You have fish sticks?"

"Uh, no, just this fresh fish I picked up from the Japanese market this morning "

"You know what , why don't we see if we can find Kyler something he can eat. Girls, you wanna come with me to the kitchen?"

"Yes, please" Halley was the first one inside the house, when Kyler and Daniel couldn't hear her she let out a laugh, it was the most uncomfortable situation she had been in a while, and she always had the need to laugh in the most inappropriate moments

♢♢♢

The three women were looking for something for Kyler, then again, Halley didn't know what a brainless douchebag ate, so she had no idea what she was looking for. Her phone began to ring and she saw it was Eli's mom, she never called her unless it was something important, she began to grow worried, because the last time she received a call from the woman it was not good. She quickly made her way out of the kitchen without a word, gaining weird looks from her aunt and cousin that she paid no attention to

"Hello, Mrs. Moskowitz?"

"Halley, sweetie, hello"  she sounded worried

"Is everything okay?" 

"It's Eli" Halley closed her eyes shut "He's locked in his bedroom and won't let me in, he's feeling really bad lately, you know, with all the kids at school and his scar" a sigh escaped the girls lips, she hadn't checked  on Eli after school like she did every day because Sam had dragged her to her house and she completely forgot to call him "I was wondering if you could come over, if you're not too busy, and talk to him since he won't even let me see him" Halley could be having dinner with Queen Elisabrth herself, but if her friends needed anything she would drop whatever she was doing to go and help them, besides, that gave her just one more reason to leave  that uncomfortable dinner
