Amber's POV: A deep sigh left my lips as we waited for Hopper. He was supposed to go bring us Burger King and get Alexei a slurpee. The tv played looney toons cartoons and Joyce propped her head up with her arm. Murray stared at Alexei as he watched the tv screen. Woody Woodpecker ran across the screen and Alexei laughed.

I patted his back and said "slow down you'll choke."

He nodded and began to eat it slower. Hopper handed him his slurpee with a scoff. Alexei took it from him and Hopper bit into his hamburger. I picked at the French fries in front of me and all of a sudden, Alexei spit red slurpee all over the floor. "This is strawberry!" He said. "What'd he say?" Hopper asked. "It's strawberry." Murray and I said. "I'm sorry?" Hopper said. "His slurpee. He says it's strawberry." Murray replied. Hopper shrugged and said "so what?" "Hop, he did ask for cherry." Joyce said to him.

"Well they didn't have it. They didn't have it." Hopper said. Joyce nodded as she noticed Hopper began to get tense. "Tell him it's sugar in ice and it's the same thing." Murray translated for him and Alexei scoffed, looking at me. "Is he serious?" Alexei said. I shrugged and he looked at Murray. "Tell that stupid man that it's not even the same in the slightest." Alexei said.
