ALEX'S POV

"Eeeew! I don't like the taste of the taste of their Italian Pasta! Too much sauce makes the pasta slimy with tiny pepper inside. I'm not going to this restaurant again." Eli blurted.

"Shh..they'll hear you. But they have a good taste on pizzas. Do you like it?"

"No."

When she says no, it means Yes. She always deny everything that will make her flattered. So instead she gradually deny it and feel like she didn't like that thing or even recognize it.

"I'm gonna talk to the flappy boss, they have here. Do they think I'm going to write positive deeds on their evaluation paper!"

"Then I'm gonna right." I grabbed the paper from her.

"No! I'll report this stuff." She grabbed it again from me.

"Eli!!!"

The paper got crumpled and destroyed.
What to do?

"Do you know what do they got on this?" She zipped her pineapple juice.

After she drank half of her juice, she threw the liquid on the pasta, mixed it, then she threw the straw on the floor, mixed the water and her soup. Gross! Eli, I didn't know she have this ideas in her mind.

"Gross Eli! Stop it!"

"I'm done. Let's go!"

Then we heard the waiters yelling at us, maybe because Eli didn't have her manners inside the restaurant. But if I were Eli, maybe I've done that too.

"Losers gonna lose. Queen Elizabeth will always win."

"That's not the right thing to do."

"So? They're not going to report me. They don't have rights, and besides I'm the customer here, I should be the one shouting on them because of their miserable Pasta."

"You know what?"

"What?"

"You're talkative, when something disappoints you."

"Nobody cares."

"No, you have a friend now, so I care."

"It's friday night, right?"

"So? What's with friday night?"

"You don't know? Oh dear heavens! You're such a good boy."

"I'm working for my mother."

"Geez! We don't have time for that! Let's go to party!" She exclaims.

"No, your dad will get mad on you."

"He didn't care. He comes home at 3am on fridays. Please, Alex."

"Okay. But don't drink."

"Juice is fine with me."

We drove to the corner street where we can hear the loud music and different party lights. Eli is so very excited that she opened her side window, to see around.

"Let's go!!" She sang.

Well, as for me. I don't have time for this. On weekends, I still have to earn money for my mother $30 is not enough for a week. So I do different jobs on weekends.

Party is not my thing, maybe because I chose to come inside Eli's world. I'm her friend now, so I think I have the right to be with her, and protect her.

I can see Eli, feeling the music and dancing in the crowd. So I think, I can get a drink.

"Iced Tea please."
