"I never got the chance to ask yesterday... what club are you in?"
"Not in any. I don't participate in that nonsense."
"Ben?"
"Last time I checked, that's me."
"Is Nick at another club meeting again?"
"Yeah, he is. They're preparing their club stand for an upcoming event... whatever the hell it is. Junky, lame school stuff."
"Oh... are you out of school?"
"I wish. I'm in my last year of high school. What about you?"
"Me too. It's been pretty stressful... I just want it to end already."
"It? You mean the school year?"
"Is that something you do often...?"
"What's that something, Rosaleen?"
"Point out the obvious."
*laughs*
"It drives people craaazy, especially my mom. Nick's the only one who can tolerate it for the most part; that's why we're best buds."
"It? You mean your specialty to point out the obvious?"
"Ah hah... attacking me with my own specialty. A plus for you."
*yelling in the background*
"Damn... I'm needed for waiter duty again. Let me take your order quickly. What would you like?"
"Oh! Sorry, I didn't mean to hold you back from doing your job. One Yellowtail and Scallion Roll, please."
"Not your fault. A bunch of people just came in, and we're understaffed right now."
*mumbles*
"If only that idiot was here..."
"$2.99 is your total. You'll pay the delivery guy who will be there in a few minutes. Have a good day, Rosie."
"Thank you, Benny. You too."
*snorts*
