brunch with him

So I'm "publishing" 2 chapter cos I feel like they were short so enjoy!!!

A dark room is lit up by florecent candles, the smell of cypress and lavender linger in the area. The candles surrounded an ancient book that was centered on a pentagram. Fog slowly lingers at the feet of a small figure dressed in a black cloak, the figure recites something in old tongue, the softness of their voice sends out cool chills. The darkness from the corner of the rooms are drawn towards the middle, they engulf the cloacked person and then vanish as a sudden interuptance ruins the summoning.

“Siza honey food is done, ok...and turn on the lights” the small figure’s mother announced.

“Mom im doing summoning” she whines taking her hood off. her curled hair jumps up, her tan freckled face lit up from the hallway light.

“Just come on and eat” she says shaking her head.

The short child rolls her eyes and throws the black cloak off.

“What we havin for dinner” she asks

“ well we are having baked chicken seasoned with cheese and breadcrumbs and some mac-n-cheese” her mother says brightly

“Cheese on cheese mom” she questioned

“Yup”

The young girl sighs and heads past her mother into the kitchen.

“Siza what are you planning for tomorrow” her father says stuffing some chicken in his mouth, she replies “ studying maybe” she shrugs picking at her full plate.

“ what do you mean nothing, go out with friends and have some fun! i want you to go out more” he huffs

“No dad i dont wanna” she whines

“Both of you stop and eat your food, siza honey at least go out tomorrow your dad wants you to live your life instead of being inside all weekend” she says softly

“Fine mom ill go…” she says with a sigh

Siza didnt have many friends near her, most of them were online friends she had met in public group chats or online servers on games. One friend who she knew for a while now lived fairly close to her but she was too shy to actually try seeing them, she had a little obsession over them and always chatted with them.

After dinner she walks up to her room locks the door and opens up her computer.
“Logging in!” she yells excitedly,”let’s see if any of my friends are online today” she checks her chat logs and sees no messages, siza pouts knowing that she should have expected that.

She decides to initiate a conversation with one of her long time friends:

‘Hey heyyyyy heyyyy ezikiel’

 She sends, her friend known by ezikiel responed making her jump up for joy

“Aw yesss i loaf him” she says all giggly

‘ hey siza...wats up’

Nothing much...uh hey can i ask ya somethin’

She wanted to ask him if she could meet him in real life, she gets nervous and squeezes her eyes shut. A sudden ding surprises her and she jumps, her eyes then glue to the screen and she reads the message:

You wanna meet me in real life... seems cool im not doing anything tomorrow we can meet anywhere youd like

She smiles and flushes up “ yessss” she says in a loud whisper.

She types up a response and puts some victory music on, “i am so lucky right now...hold up” she says jetting out of her seat and rushing out to the hallway “dad mom im going out tomorrow to hang out with a friend’!!!! She yells out excitedly, her parents give her an ok

“Im heading out love both of you” she says closing the door after her, she had a bright smile on her face, she was wearing rain boots and a night dark purple cloak, similar to what red ridding hood would have worn.

“I am so freaking lucky” she hummed to herself.

She checks her phone and looks at the address, which was a small diner in the city. “I wonder how the food tastes there...never had their food” she says to herself.

She heads up to the diner and enters, “table for two...i uh have a friends coming soon”  she says a bit awkwardly, the person at the counter looks her up and down “ya gonna wait for ya mommy and daddy” he taunted

“No...im not a child im an adolecent and im waiting for a friend ok, could you please seat me” she says a bit angered, she had always been short and was always made fun of, she had gotten her shortness from her father who was about two inches shorter than her mother.

“Hey ryan ill handle them go and relax” a familiar voice rang, a boy with blonde hair and havel eyes entered, malek o’brice.

“You can follow me this way” he says to the short teen.

She follows him to a booth in the corner of the diner

“There you are” he says placing down two menus.

“Thank you very much” she says smiling at him” she says.

Her excitment and anticipation bottled up inside of her. She couldnt help but smile and jump up and down from her booth chair. She waits seconds then minutes and soon took her phone out to message him, she doesnt get a response back and slumps over on the table.

“Should i take your order yet or should i wait a little longer?” he asks

“Oh uh...ill wait” she say with less excitment

“Ok and hey dont get so worried im sure theyll come” malek gave her a small smile and went off

She then begins to think that he’ll come and that he wont ditch her she hoped for him to come and greet and for her to greet him and have a nice conversation. She wanted to makes jokes with him and eat and get to know the real him.

She waits a bit but hears the bell of the diner door ring.

She jumps up and looks at the door, she then thinks how she was supposed to know its him if she had no idea what he really looked like, she rubs her chin and turns away from the door.

“Hey! Your friends here” malek says seating the rather tall boy at the booth.
Sizas heart fluttered and her smile popped up almost like the sun after a rainy afternoon.

“Ah! Hello im so glad to finally meet you ezikial” she says happily

“Hey its nice to meet you as well siza...you so cute and small” he says with a small smile.

Malek looks over and smiles as he sees the happy girl and her friend chatting

He goes to the back to take a break.

“Im so tired” he says sighing

The only thing on his mind at the moment was if his best friend was ok.
