(F/N's POV)

It has been three weeks and my Polish is starting to get pretty fluent. I have to admit, it's a super hard language to learn. Luckily, I have two Polish ladies to teach me the complex language. Anyway, I'm seasoning four tomahawk steaks while listening to Panzerkampf from the Art of War album by Sabaton. 

After goofing around with the music, I finish seasoning the raw steaks before placing them onto a plate. The back door opens and Ela enters the room with a glass of iced tea.

Ela: Hey! Are those steaks ready for the smoker?

Me: *Washes hands* Yup! *Picks up the plate* Let's go cook 'em!

Ela: Awesome! *Holds the door* C'mon! 

Me (Holding plate): I'm coming!

I walk out the door and approach the grill; I put the plate on the wooden platform of the smoker before opening the lid. A giant cloud of smoke flies out of the smoker, causing me to turn and cough.

Me:  Agh! Agh! *Clears throat* That smells good... Agh. *Monika hands me the tongs* Thank you, sweetie. *Grabs a steak* Alright, in you go!

I place the steaks into the smoker and they make a satisfying sizzle. After putting them in, I close the smoker before setting a timer on my phone. Zofia throws a ball onto the yard, in which Stryker pursues the object. I take my seat, then Monika offers me a can of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer. I smile her then grab the can from her hand.

Me: Thanks. *Cracks it open* Haven't had a beer for a long long time. *Sips* Aahhh... Cheap but tastes good.

Monika: Don't drink too much.

Me: *Sips then gulps* I know. I know. *Puts down cup* I don't want to get too drunk because if I do... Things get naked.

Ela: *Blushes* Ooh... Okay... Um... 

Monika: *Punches my shoulder* F/N... Not in front of them!

Me: *Shrugs* Sorry! I had to get it off my chest.

Monika: Yare Yare Daze...

Me: You've been watching more JoJo?

Monika: I've been binge-watching it... I'm at Part four right now...

Me: Ah... Cool. *Grabs the can* That explains why you've been making those darn JoJo references.

Monika: Oh, come on! You love 'em!

Me: Eh... I guess. *Sips* Mmmm...

Ela: So! Anything else planned for today? 

Me: Hmmm... We can go to my family's house and say hi.

Monika: Oh yeah! *Snaps fingers* 

Me: Monika... I don't feel so good.

Monika: Oh fuck off! That scene made me cry!

Me: I'm sorry! Hehe...

Monika: JaJa... Um, but yeah... Ela, you never met F/N's family, right?

Ela: Nope! 

Zofia: Same here.

Monika: Oh, you're going to love them! They're such nice southern folk!

Ela: I bet they are. *Sips* Mmm... Good tea!
