Alex: "Gosh! You seem ridiculously upset!"

I don't even answer. I'm too furious.

My pride had been totally deflated!

Alex: "Did he try to touch you?"

Lyla: "No!"

Alex: "Well?"

Lyla: "I don't really wanna talk about it."

Alex: "What did he do to you!? I'm gonna say something to him... you'll see!"

Lyla: "Just let it go Alex! He's a jerk! He just told me to stop pitying him and to stop hanging around him all the time. What a jerk!"

Alex: "Wow! What a slap in the face! Oh man... wait till my friends find out!"

Lyla: "And why is that important?"

Alex: "I mean, because they would just LOVE to see you playing Wonder Woman!"

Lyla: "Ha... Ha... Ha... Very funny..."

Alex: "Anyway, that four-eyes is a bit cheeky! I've never seen you like this."

-

He definitely has made me lose my appetite.

But... it's my favorite! Ginger chicken! What a waste!

Caroline: "So... It looks like you had a rough day sweetie."

Lyla: "I don't wanna talk about it."

Alex: "She was trying to play a superhero but her "geek" in distress wound up dissing her."

Lyla: "You can't keep your nose out of other people's business, can you?"

Alex: "No I can't, but take a look in the mirror! Just forget about it! You're acting like your life is over! Honestly, what did you expect? That he would carve a statue in your honor?"

Lyla: "Why not?! I am a "super heroine" after all!"

Albert: "Leave your sister alone. Can't you see she's upset?"

Alex: "At the same time, to want to be the savior of humanity, you're bound to end up flat on your face."

I have definitely lost my appetite! Thanks Alex!

Lyla: "I think I'm gonna go to bed."

Caroline: "Go ahead sweetie..."

Lyla: "Thanks Mom."

-

It might not have been the best idea in the world to go to bed early.

I can't sleep.

That annoys me even more!

I'm so mad! Who does he think he is?!
