fix it, felix

french fries with felix

There was no line in front of Shake Shack today, and it was a good sign. We wouldn't have to wait for so long before eating greasy, cheesy burgers and fries.

"Are you ready to gain some weight, Felix?" I asked as we stood in front of Shake Shack, looking at the signage. It's been a week since Felix got better, and he says he would like to regain his normal weight, his weight before he got sick.

"Let's go," he says as we enter the shack. The smell of burgers and fries are everywhere, wafting through the beautifully adorned restaurant. We decided to sit at a two-seater table, one near the huge-ass glass windows. "What do you wanna eat?"

I offered him my money, but he says it's his treat so I let him do what he wants. "Shroom Burger with bacon and Shacksauce. And also some crinkle cut cheese fries."

He nodded. "I'll go and get it. Wait here."

He arrived in a few minutes as we are served by our orders. I looked at his burger. "Oh, is that a Double cheeseburger with bacon?" I asked as I watched him munch into it and get some of his fries. He nodded.

I took my Fountain soda and took a sip. "Ugh, I'm jealous. I should've ordered that one as well."

"Regrets are always at the end," he says with a chuckle.

I rolled my eyes at him. "But this still tastes so good with that shacksauce. And with fries." I suddenly noticed the shape of the fries, and reminded me of that one bad hair day he had. "These fries looked like your hair last time you had a bad hair day!" I exclaimed, showing it off.

He swatted my hand away. "Ya, stop teasing me, Katz."

I shoved fries into my mouth. "But it still looks like your hair. French fry Felix."

He took my burger and covered my line of vision. "Eat."

I got it from his hands and ate it, in a span of three minutes, it's gone. I'm left with Felix fries. "Who among us is the one who needs to gain weight again?" he asks, eating his fries.

"You." I answered.

"It doesn't look like that to me."

"But it looks like that to me."

He got up and pinched my cheek. "You're getting fat, Kittykat. Cute!"

I groaned. "Agh! It hurts!"

He chuckled and finished his fries. "I wish we had these in Australia. It's so good."

"There's no Shake Shack in Australia?" I asked.

He shook his head. "None. But we also have lots of burger places in there, which is quite nice. Even cafes and fine dining have burgers. To be honest, I miss BL Burgers at Darlinghurst. My family and I used eat there once in a while. I'd always order their Beef Burger with liquid Cheese. It's so awesome, Katz, it also has bacon. And their sauce is darn amazing."

It sounds so good. What the fuck. I want another burger. I sighed, imagining what it would taste like.

I dropped my head on the table. "Oh, now I feel a little hungry again."

He laughed. "Kat, if you keep this up, you'll become fat instead of me."
