-Flashback-

Gardina's P.O.V

I was sitting in my room with my Walkman listening to some music while rubbing my pregnant belly really craving some Philly cheese steak knowing good and well I didn't have a dollar to my name.

"Sorry little bit, no cheese steak today." I sighed rubbing my belly.

It was just then I heard a tapping on my window and saw that it was Marshall outside my window motioning for me to let the window up. I took my headphones out and  slowly rolled myself over towards the window's latch and opened it watching as he crawled through finally making his way onto my bed with some meal boxes in his hands.

"Marshall what are you doing climbing through my window at 1 in the morning?" I questioned sitting back up against my comfy pillow.

"Here." He said handing me a food container.

"What's this?" I asked.

"Open it and see." He ushered. 

I opened it and was stunned to see a whole Philly cheese steak and fries with some coleslaw on the side instantly making my mouth water and my already hungry stomach jump for joy.

"Oh my God, thank you so much! How did your broke ass afford this?" I asked taking the plastic ware out the bag and immediately digging in to this wonderful meal before me.

"Eh, might've messed up a few dinners at work.." He smirked opening his own container of some fish and chips.

"Wow..your not going to have a job long stealing from Gilbert's." I warned munching on some of my fries.

"They won't find out, be grateful I even brought you any." He touted.

"Why did you?" I questioned.

"I know Proof lost his job at Little Caesar's and your mom is out on medical after breaking her foot, so I know you all are a bit tight for cash, so I know your not eating enough for one person, not along two." He said looking at my bulging belly.

"Well..your right about that..but you ain't gotta be all Clark Kent, swooping in saving the day, we'll be alright." I assured him as he nodded a bit eating some of his fish.

"Where's Proof anyway?" He asked.

"I think he's at Rufus's." I said.

"Ah, yeah that's right..well I gotta go Kim's probably wondering where I am." He announced closing his container of food and making his way to the window.

"Tell Timberly I said hi." I sarcastically said knowing Marshall knew I didn't like her too much.

"It's Kim." He corrected.

"Whatever, bye!" I waved as he rolled those blue eyes in the back of his head and left out the window.

I closed the window and made sure it was locked and continued eating my food wondering just when it was I became friends with that dorky white kid.
