  After the heap on plates washed, more were added. And after four tables cleared and dished washed, the fifth table, only had soda on their table, listening to Don Williams.

"Here are the plates!!" Caro, a waiter who really looks like Asian, India per say, said. And i collected the plates.

"Well done." I told her smiling.

"You are most welcome!!" She said. When that accent.

"Are you Indian?" I asked her.

"Yes, my Mom was Indian, she died when I was twelve!!" She told me.

"I'm so so sorry Caro!!" I told her.

"It's okay. I'm okay!!" She said and removed her apron, I started the plates.

------------------

  I twisted the key and it locked. I sighed as I turned and gave Aunt Imelda the key.

"When will Wenda's come?" I asked her sitting on the stairs, tired.

"Anytime from now!! The party starts now actually." She said and sat beside me.

"Where do you live?" I asked her.

"Why? I don't like visitors!!" She said. And I smiled.

"It's a ten minutes walk from here darling!!" She said and stared at the sky. I did too. And the fresh air was nice. I looked at the town, the kids running about, and adults smiling looking at them. There are also people walking, or talking.

"It's an interesting town isn't?" She asked me. I nod.

"Yeah. It's really nice here." I said.

"Well, the City's nice too!!" She said.

"Well, it's nice to have some peace and quiet sometimes!! Away from the problems, and everything!!" I told her. She sighed.

"Yeah. Same reason that kid comes here everytime!!" She said.

"Jace?" I asked her. She rolled here eyes.

"Who else?" She asked. I raised my hand up in surrender.

"It's nice you have him as your boyfriend. He might be really bothersome, and a little bit sturborn..." She said. I raised my eyebrows at her.

"Okay, very stubborn, but he's the most strongest boy I've ever known. He's nice, sweet, and charming..... When he wants to. That is!!" She told me. I smiled and nod.

"And I'm happy he found a nice girl like you." She said.

"Thank you but actually... We're not dating. We're only friends!!" I told her. She looked at me.

"Really?" She asked.

"Yeah. But I'm lucky to have a friend like him. He's dependable!! He makes me smile, and he's sweet. Always calls me Muffin. He's very understanding. He doesn't look down on me on anything. And he's very adventurous. Sometimes, a jerk. But he's a very nice guy." I told her. She smiled.

"What?" I asked her

"Nothing. Just, seeing the obvious!!" She told me. I shrug.

"Well, I......."
