- I don't know what I'm doing here!
- Oh let me remind you brother, you are repairing your mistake with Gertie. Now silence and crush the bananas.
- And how a stupid banana dessert will help her?
- Because she is sad, and this is the classical "Shortman dessert" to lift the spirit. She is sad for your fault and you have to solve this. - The red-haired girl snorted and placed the bowl in the hands of her annoying twin.
- My fault? She started everything.
- Is not true, Gertie was only dancing with Jimmy Kafka in her birthday party, you burned her dress.
- Was an accident.
- No, it wasn't, I saw everything and if you don't want that mom found it out, CRUSH THE BANANAS AND MIX THEM WITH CHOCOLATE.
- Ok, ok... But after this... we won't speak to each other again.
- Phil, even if you're 16, you're still a kid.
- Hey Stella! How do you feel?
- Best as ever... - The woman said sarcastically while she was trying to sit in her bed.
- Stella, darling, please... you know that I didn't tell you that...
- Oh really honey? Because I heard pretty well how you said to Eduardo: "Stella is the most annoying person that I never met before, I need vacation!"
- You're putting it out of context.
- Miles, is not a good context on that.
The blond sighed and took a seat on the bed next to his very pregnant wife, who was turning her back on him in annoyance.
- Love, I just said that WE need some vacation to rest, we did a lot of things in the village and now you're in the third trimester, you need more rest.
- So... Did you talk about our work and not about me?
- Of course, Stella, you're the most awesome person that I have ever met before. Sorry about not expressing myself correctly. You and our baby are all I need in my life, I can't imagine my life without both of you.
- Oh Miles... Thanks... - With difficulty she turned to her husband and smiled sweetly at him.
- And, to express my apologies I cooked my famous "Shortman dessert" to lift the spirit. My mom always cooks it when someone feels bad. My grandma Shortman taught her how to prepare it.
- It has chocolate?
- Sure!
- I'll try a little...
- Get away, football head... I'm busy! - The blond girl ran quickly by the hall.
- Helga, please, I want to talk.
- Oh, just forget it... We are even. You cheated on me, and I cheated on you, but one day, maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but one day I'll have my sweet revenge. But I've to admit, it was a... interesting April fool's day.
- I know... but I want to repair my damage, I think I.. I exaggerated
- Criminy! How much stupid do you think I am?
- Is not a joke Helga... it's a present. I cooked it myself.
- A... present? Another blinding present?
- Not. Of course not. It is a special dessert. It's a special Shortman recipe, which the Shortmans use to apologize. I swear that if you eat it, you will be ok.
- Sorry but, I never will trust in one of your presents, you know, for obvious reasons.
- Helga please! It's just chocolate and bananas, I promise!
The girl looked at him expectantly for a few moments, while internally dying of love.
- Okay, I'll give you a chance... but if something happens to me, hair boy.
- I swear, Helga, I would never disgrace my great-grandmother's recipe for apologies.
- Well, if something happens to me, you'll go straight to meet her.
The girl snatched the bowl from his hands and sat down at a table in the cafeteria, while the boy smiled from a distance.
