The clouds had covered the skies, not dark, scary, angry clouds but white, fluffy, happy clouds, the sun was shining as bright as ever and the breeze was blowing ever so lightly brushing through the trees and green grass. Everything looked fresh and calm.
Lying with her face up to the sky, she watched as the clouds moved and formed different figures out of them.
Jonathan placed some slices of cucumber on both Kookie's eyes and knowing exactly who would do that, she struck his back playfully.
They were out on a picnic at the Park and have been playing some games like they used to as children. They played tag, hide and seek, rock, paper, scissors.
Jonathan and Kookie have been friends since they were kids, family friends in fact, they'd attended the same school since kindergarten. Johnny has always been very playful, he loves to sing so they call him Johnny just like the character from the movie 'Sing'. He's not just playful he's also a playboy, he had dated about five girls since grade six and is presently single.
" Jonathan! " Kookie screamed placing much emphasis on the 'n' sound.
" Yes, what is it you troublesome being? " Jonathan was playing dumb.
" Why place cucumbers on my face?! "
" Seeing that you refused to eat any, I figured probably your eyes would make more use of it than your mouth, besides, don't they do that at spas? "
" Ugh, you're so annoying, I hate cucumbers "
" I thought cookies were supposed to be sweet but you.... you're just.... " Johnny was looking for words to do his description justice.
" Too sweet right " Kookie replied raising her eyebrows up and down at him. Her name is Keturah but her pet name is Kookie with a 'K' not a 'C'.
" Johnny's right Kookie, you've been staring at the sky since after hide and seek, why not eat something? " Annabelle chirped in, she's always been a sweet soul. They call her Ann for short, she and Micheal have been dating for over two years now.
" Okay fine " Ann's a sweet soul, it's difficult to argue with her
Sitting up, Kookie picked a fruit juice and sipped lightly from the straw. Johnny, as expected, pressed her cup causing juice to spill on the picnic towel.
" Why are you being careless Kookie, you could draw the attention of ants with this spill. Tsk tsk, such a child " That's what she's always been to Johnny - a child. She was sure she would never grow up in his eyes even though he is just two years older than her.
" Oh heavens, what sin did I commit to warrant my being tied to this gorilla for so long? " Kookie cried dramatically, looking up towards the sky, where she believes heaven to be.
" Quit your whining Kookie, I'm trying to concentrate" Esther called from the bench she was sitting on at the corner, playing mortal combat as usual with so much seriousness.
Ann chuckled lightly picking up a napkin to wipe the juice spill and Micheal took the napkin from her
" Let me handle that babe " he soaked the napkin and got to work.
Mickey is the most romantic amongst the friends. If all K-drama romance leads were to be in a single person, it would be him.
" Thanks boo " Ann smiled at him and turned to pick a cookie.
" I have an idea for our next game guys" they all turned to see David coming towards them from the bush. Seeing him, they all burst into laughter except Esther of course. She's not the best of friends with Dave and they all didn't know why, she just rolled her eyes and got back to her game.
