The Chola (A Breakfast Club Fanfic)

Lunch Part One

I took my leftovers of last nights dinner out. It was a few large tamales and a side of tortilla chips. Me and Diego went out to eat at a Mexican food place after school.

"What's that?" John asked me.

"Tamales and chips."

"What's tamales?"

"Two words, Mexican food."

"Huh."

"Is there a microwave anywhere?" I asked.

"I saw one in Vernon's office," Brian said.

"Thanks."

I got up and walked to Vernon's office. I politely knocked.

"Yes?" Vernon said.

"Excuse me sir. Can I use your microwave?"

He thought about it for a second.

"Yeah."

I put the takeout container in the microwave. After about half a minute, it started to smell like the food.

"That smells good. What is that?"

"Tamales and tortilla chips."

"I rarely go out to eat."

"You should sir. You should go out and try new foods. It'll be worth it. I tried Japanese food for the first time last summer. It was really good. When I tried Chinese food, Diego got food poisoning but other than that it was delicious."

Vernon smiled.

"Have you tried Italian food before?" he asked.

"No sir."

"You should, the chicken parmesan and I ate a few of those cheese stuffed breadsticks was like heaven."

"Wow! Cheese stuffed?"

"Hmmhmm."

"I'll tell Diego about this Italian place."

"Sure."

He told me the name of it. The microwave beeped. I took my food out.

"It was nice talking to you Mr. Vernon."

"You too Maria. Enjoy your lunch."

"Gracias!"

"De nada."

I was shocked and happy at the same time. For once, Vernon wasn't Dick.
