"Kara, stop eating! You can't eat everything right away. Sit I'll make the rest or there's nothing for me." She dragged Kara by her arm and made her sit by the kitchen table.
"Fine, fine. No need to be brutal." Kara stroked her own arm to make the ease the pain.
"Oh you'll know when I'm brutal and now I'm not... Sit still and wait. Or you know what? Scratch that. Make yourself useful and make us some coffee. Can you do that, please?" Lena pouted.
"Okay." Kara dramatically stood up and slowly made her way back to the kitchen.
Once they were ready they brought everything on the table and Kara poured each of them coffee. Lena liked it black whereas Kara liked it with milk and lots of sugar.
"That's odd." Kara said while putting too many cubes of sugar into her mug.
"What is?" Lena raised and eyebrow.
"Your family. You always have cube sugar. Why?"
"I don't know? I think my mother just likes it. Although i remember her saying that it's better this way because we don't drip our drink from the spoon into the sugar."
"Did you know that sugar cube was invented in I think city called Datschitz? That's in Czech republic. Some guy I forgot his name invented machine that can make sugar cubes because his wife cut herself while paring down the sugar loaf into smaller parts so she could use it in the home. She came up with the idea and now we can have the cube sugar for almost 200 years." Kara, happy with herself, grabbed another 3 cubes and threw them in her coffee.
"How come you know that?"
"Wouldn't you like to know?" She winked at Lena.
Kara ate her pancakes quite quickly because of her appetite and while Lena was still eating she tried to impress her friend with other entertaining stories.
"The breakfast was lovely Lena, thank you." Kara thanked Lena while she was walking her to the door.
"It was that delicious because of your help."
"Thanks anyway, for the night and all."
"It was no problem, Kara. We should make this more often. It was fun."
"Oh, yeah I'd love that!" Kara hugged Lena and entered the freezing cold. "Bye, Lena!"
"Bye, Kara!" Lena waved at her friend.
Kara walked to her home fully knowing Lena was watching her, she turned around and waved with smile.
"The lost daughter has returned!" Eliza welcomed her. "I'm sorry sweetheart we had to stay at work, but I suppose Lena was better company anyway. What do you want for breakfast, honey?"
"Oh, I'm good. Lena and I made pancakes. She taught me how to do them." Kara straightened her pose an put hands on her hips feeling like some kind of a superhero.
"That means you can make them for us sometimes!" Alex appeared from the bathroom.
"That's and excellent idea. You can invite Lena. Let's say next Saturday?"
"Yeah Kara you can invite Lena." Alex said mockingly and winked.
