HIS NEMESIS

"HAVE you had breakfast?" Lauren asked Astrid, trying his best to ignore the tall guy sitting beside the other. 

After that initial bickering, the three of them were finally sitting around the only table in the room.  The twins on one side and him on the opposite. 

"We had one before going here," Astrid answered.

"Then order some desserts," Lauren suggested.  "All the sweets here are very delicious, I guarantee it."

"It sounded like you've tasted every dessert in this place," Astrid said in a teasing tone.

"Well, I often come here whenever I have time.  So, yeah, I kind of have tasted everything on the menu," Lauren said with a bit of shyness.
