broken glass

the Burger dive

I looked through the bus window. The broken up tar on the road was piled up on the side of the road. The smashed beer bottles, the burned out cigarettes. It was horrible the state of this place. I knew how sickening it could be to live here. Yet it felt closer the people how liked you were like your family and a close community. Unfortunately the people you hated were the one you have to watch out for. It brought back so many memories that I'd rather forget. I sniffed and wiped my eyes to prevent my stupid tears from escaping.

"Hey you alright" Noah asked he looked at me with worry.

"Yeah, just hayfever" I laughed.

The sadness behind my eyes were barley noticed so he smiled and continued to looked at his leg. I remembered what happened and got very scared

"Hows your leg?"

"It hurts like hell" he chuckled.

"We'll get there soon" I sighed.

He just smiled at looked the evergrowing bloodstain on his bandaged leg.

The bus drew to a sudden stop. I pulled my hoodie over my head and turned round to whisper.

"Its time to get off"

He nodded and limped through the bus using my shoulder to support him.

"You hungry?" I asked laughing.

He nodded enthusiasticly while licking his lips.

"Theres something I call the burger dive but it requires some acting" I informed

"I'll do whatever it takes" he replied.

Once I explained the plan we began STEP 1: dive into bin and find half-eaten burger. We looked through the bin and picked it up it stank and looked gross but it didnt matter.

STEP:2 bump into a rich person with our burgers in hand. We looked around until we found our guy he had thinning hair a moustouche and a tight black suit and tie. He had a gold watch.

"Jackpot! !" I grinned.

We walked up and bumped into him as planned dropping our burgers in the process. Alarmed by us he apolgized as exspected.

"Oh no we dont have any money for more food" Noah cried.

"Oh what are we too do" I chimed in. "Im so sorry I'll give you the money Im deeply sorry"

"Alright!!" We both grinned. Our tones in voice was seriously changed. He raised his eyebrow but gave us the money. He walked away and I shreiked as he left.

"Lavender you're a genious!!!" He shouted.

I knew from then on our time would be fun together.
