It took them about an hour to finish the stitches, and by that time Vivi had already made dinner and was waiting by the table. Alone.

"He won't ruin it this time Vivi.... it'll work out.... yeah, you'll win this game this time.... yeah everything is alright..." She was mumbling to herself over and over again.

"Oh, dinner is already done?" Sofie looked through the door and took of her jacket. Then she sat down beside Vivi.

"Are you alright, Vivi?" Vivi immediately looked up, she hadn't noticed that Sofie was inside.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Are you hungry?" She smiled like nothing happened.

"Sure, what's for dinner?" Sofie asked.

"Spaghetti! You said that you wanted pasta sometime, right?" Sofie was exited, she nodded her head. If she had been a dog her tail would be wagging like crazy. Then the rest came into the room.

"I heard someone say pasta!" The man yelled. Everyone quickly sat down.

"What's your name by the way?" Siri asked him. Vivi looked at the man, making a face like she was begging for something.

"My name is Felix, and what could yours be? Must be something really pretty to match your beauty." He said with a flirty tone, like he was in a bar or something.

"Siri...." She looked a little uncomfortable.

"Hey Felix...." Ida whispered. "I don't think that it's a good idea to flirt when Vivi is around. She'll probably get pissed."

"Anderson? Yeah, she probably will."

"So that's her last name? How do you know her?" Julia was putting pasta on her plate, overhearing their conversation.

"Yeah, I've known her for about ....9 years now I think." Felix said counting something on his fingers.

"Wow that's so long! Hey Vivi! Why don't you tell us how you two met?" Ida shouted to Vivi. Vivi choked on her pasta.

"Wh- what? How we met? Uh..."

"We met out here, right outside the door over there!" He pointed to the hall.

"But Vivi said that she first got here a few months ago....." Matilda mumbled.

"Vargas! What the hell are you telling them?! Don't be a liar!" Vivi's face reddened.

"Who are you calling a liar? It's true, we met here like 9 years ago. Why don't you try telling them the truth for once?" He was mocking her.

"We met in school, alright? He's always been like that." She looked at everyone at the table. "He just likes playing jokes. Hahaha, very funny Felix." He shrugged.

"Fine, whatever you say, I'll play in your little game for once." Felix reached out for his fork and stuffed his face with pasta.

"Uh.... Alright then....." Siri said and started eating. The rest of the dinner was awkwardly quiet. After it everyone went to sleep.
