·AVIANA·

           Angel, Aislin, Gabe, Lil and I all got in the car and drove to the restaurant Aislin had made reservations for.  I sat next to Angel in the back who kept looking out the window but I caught some of his glances at me.

         
Telling him about Novian felt good.  I wouldn't even let myself think about my family while I was stuck in the basement.  It was too grievous and heartbreaking but every once in awhile they would sneak up on me.  I missed them beyond words.  I yearned to see my mother's smile and my dad's protective arms once again around me. 

        
I was a daddy's girl.  I looked up to him with everything I did.  If I was going to try out for a school play— I needed to hear his opinion.  If I was going to try out for a basketball team— he would be my coach and always helped me prepare.  He was my rock and soul and he and my mother were the people that made me, me.  Missing them was an understatement.

         
Aislin pulled up to the restaurant and in bright, vintage marquee lights it gleamed: Daniels.  I squealed making everyone look at me. 


"I love Daniels," I explain to them so they could stop giving me confused looks. "My parents used to bring me and my brother here whenever we did well or great on our report cards or something."

"Oh cute," Aislin smiled. "Our parents used to bring us here whenever the boys won a basketball game or whenever I won my cheer competition."

"Oh, yeah! I remember coming with you guys one time," Lil said.  I felt myself smile.

"Come on. Let's go," Angel said and grabbed my hand into his, showing me out the car.  I followed him inside the restaurant, our friends close behind.

  We sat in a little booth that closed us in.  The smile that was on my face was was irreplaceable as I watched Lil, Ais and Gabe roll into their seats in front of us.  Angel sat beside me.

Just soon after a waiter came by.  He was wearing the usual attire, you know: the simple black and white suit.  He smiled at all of us, but his eyes lingered a little longer on Lil.  Our waiter seemed to be young, maybe around his late twenties and he was eye raping Lil.  She didn't pay him any attention rather reading her menu than peering at the guy who obviously found her attractive.

"Bonjour, my friends! Welcome to Daniels, what may I get you tonight?  Beverages? Soup?" he asked, his tongue curling making a thick French accent.

"Can I have a lemonade please with chicken noodle soup please?" Ais ordered first.

"I'll take coke with a chicken gnocchi soup," Gabe didn't even bother with manners. Vic scribbled away on his little notepad.  He looked at me.

"Je voundrais boire de l'eau et de la soupe de nouilles de poulet s'il vous plaît," I spoke in French making my friends almost pass out in their seats.  Angel gawked at me like I grew another head, and the waiter looked at me with amusement and surprise.

"Tu parle Français?" he asked me, 'you speak French?'

"Non je parle chinois," I joked making him laugh out loud.  I said, 'no I speak Chinese.'

He pretended to wipe away a tear before moving on to Angel.  Aislin looked at me with curiosity as Angel placed his order and Lil just shook her head.  The waiter took Angel's order and then left with an "au revior."
