"Is there anywhere you wouldn't wanna go on a date ?" Kenny asked as he looked at the road.

"Uhmm.. I don't know, maybe those fancy restaurants with the unpronounceable words on the menus, where people are dressed formally and you aren't supposed to laugh too loud or breath too much. I hate those places."

You wouldn't think I grew up in luxury based on my personality. I hated such places ever since I was young and I kind of grew up with the habit. Don't get me wrong, I love food- food is life. That's the reason why I prefer simple places, places where you can order a whole food platter by your self and no rich snob will look at you like you need a mental asylum or something.

My dad would always scold me not to eat street food because I've always been a lover of food trucks and vendors. The too much oil and too much sugar is how I roll and it's the best kind of food. The food that isn't prepared by four best chefs before you could eat them. I love the food that rich people consider trash.

"But anything would be fine as long as I'm with you." I smiled at him as I held his hand that was on my thigh. "Why are we turning back ?"

"Change of plans." He chuckled. "I made a reservation at The Oracle but it can be cancelled."

"You did hear the part where I said anything would be fine as long as I'm with you right ?"

"I did. But I don't want us to do something you don't like." He smiled at me. "You once said you wanted to go to the park near my apartment. Is that fine ?"

He remembered. "Yeah." I smiled as I looked outside the window. It's just amazing how someone could pay such attention to you, listen to you and remember the smallest things about your conversations.

We pulled into a McDonald's drive-through minutes later and surprisingly there were no cars.

Kenny pulled his window down as a lady from the small drive through window greeted us. "Hi, I'm Lizzy what can I get you ?"

Kenny didn't even look at me as he answered. "Uhh.. Medium chilli cheese Mcflavour fries with Habanero BBQ seasoning, two cheeseburgers, a wrapster happy meal with fries, McNuggets, two bubblegum milkshakes and two Mcflurry ice creams."

I looked at him with wide eyes as I remembered him and I in his office a month ago.

"I forgot the lunch and I'm hungry." Gosh I was so distracted that I forgot that I said I'll bring him lunch on the phone because it's his lunch time.

He chuckled and pressed the intercom on the desk. " Yes sir ?" A female's voice answered.

"What do you want to eat ?" He asked looking at me.

"McDonald's !" I said excitedly "Medium chilli cheese Mcflavour fries with Habanero BBQ for seasoning, two cheeseburgers , a wrapster happy meal with fries , McNuggets , two bubblegum milkshakes and a Mcflurry ice cream."

Kenny looked at me suprised. "You got that Lucy ?" He said into the intercom.

"Yes sir." The girl answered and Kenny switched off the intercom.

I answered his question before he could ask. "I have this obsession with McD, don't ask. I basically know the whole menu by heart."

He nodded. "You've never eaten it have you ?" I asked as I smiled at him.

"Nope." He said.

"Why? is it not fancy enough for you ?" I teased.
