Chapter 52

" come on Mariana. Don't keep us waiting" Cassandra called from the living room.

" I'll be there in a sec" Mariana shouted from her room.

" And where are you girls planning on going?" Mr Lambert asked.

" We're going shopping sir" Ariana answered.

" And you didn't dim it fit to inform me you're going shopping?" Mrs Lambert asked as she dropped juice on the table.

" Sorry mum" Mariana came down.

" Here's my card. Use as much as you want for shopping" Mr Lambert said and gave his card to Cassandra.

" Thanks dad. But what if we're to use everything on it? Won't you get mad?" Mariana asked.

" I have other cards. I gave that one to you so you're free to use all" Mr Lambert said smiling.

" You're spoiling these kids honey" Mrs Lambert said.

" They're my kids so let me spoil them" he said.

" Come on, let's go." Mariana said.

" Won't you have at least breakfast?" Mrs Lambert asked.

" We'll eat at the mall" Ariana said.

" Bye" Cassandra said and they left.

" I heard breakfast, is it ready?" Santiago asked.

" Why didn't you go along with them?" Mr Lambert asked.

" Ew. Going shopping with girls, that sounds disgusting" Santiago said.

" You're missing out on a lot you know"

AT THE MALL,

" I'll like to change my hairstyle Cassandra" Ariana said.

" Yeah. Pink, white and black isn't the best" Casey agreed.

" Black?" Ariana asked touching her hair.

" She's just joking. There's no black. The hair's just gotten dull and you know...... boring" Mariana said and they laughed.

" Come on, let's go have breakfast. We have a lot of shopping to do. I'll have fries" Casey said.

" Since when did you become a fan of fries ?" Mariana asked surprised.

" Since yesterday. I'll eat it with ice cream and cream" Cassandra said as they walked towards the cafeteria.

" Fries, ice cream and cream. How disgusting is that?" Mariana asked clearly irritated.

" Wanna try?" Casey asked as she sat down.

" Hell no I'm not" Mariana said and waitress came over.

" Good morning, what would you like to order?" She asked with a sweet smile on her face.

" Two packs of french fries, ice cream and whipped cream. Slightly flavoured" Casey said.

" I think I'll have sushi with ketchup" Ariana said.

" Sushi with ketchup? There's nothing I won't hear off when I'm around you two" Mariana said and sighed.

" Seriously, you'll like it" Casey said.

" And what will you have?" The waitress asked Mariana

" I'll just have tea and sandwiches like a normal person" she replied.

" Anything else?" The waitress asked.

" I'll like some orange juice" Ariana said.

" Okay, and you?" She asked Cassandra.

" I'm alright" Casey said.

" Ok, please excuse me" the waitress said and left.

" Seriously Ariana, how do you think you can eat sushi and ketchup?" Casey asked.

" I know I can. Besides, I didn't know french fries and ice cream will taste good till I tried it" she said and took out her phone.

" But seriously, that idea of french fries is amazing, it's almost like you can now eat ice cream without getting Brain freeze" Casey said.

" In your dreams" Mariana said and they all laughed.

     From a corner, a guy has being watching them. He had a face mask on along with sunglasses.

" So she can smile after ruining me?" The asked himself. " I'll make her pay for ever dumping me" he said and took off his mask and sunglasses.

Guess who he was............. Max!!!

" Here you go" the waitress returned with their food and dropped it on the table.

" Thanks" they chorused and she left.

" Wanna try?" Ariana asked Casey.

" I don't think so" Casey said.

" Your loss" Ariana said. She poured some ketchup on the sushi and started eating.

" And how does that taste?" Mariana asked sipping some tea.

" Good. I like it" Ariana replied with her mouth full.

" Let me try," Casey said. She took the chopstick on the table and took a sushi before eating it. " Wow, tastes so good"

" Ugh!! I'm gonna throw up" Mariana said, she was obviously not a fan of new things.

" You should try it" Casey said.

" I'm okay with my food" she said.

" Your LOSS!!" Ariana and Cassandra chorused.

" Hmmmm" she nodded.

Soon Max covered his face again, took his bottled water and started walking over to Ariana's table.

" What culture are you gonna be dressing up as?" Ariana asked Cassandra.

" I think I'll dress African" Cassandra stated.

" African? I'll like to see you In that" Ariana said and chuckled.

" How about you?" Casey asked.

" I think I'll go with Asian style. Indian to be precise" .

" And why Indian?" Mariana asked.

" I do not know. Namaste" Ariana said joining her hands together and Mariana and Cassandra laughed.

Before Ariana knew it, water was poured all over her.

" Aaaaaaaaaaaaah" she yelled. " Are you crazy?" She asked turning to Max but not knowing who he was.

" I'm not. But this is just this beginning" he said and made to leave.

" That voice sounds familiar. I know it" Ariana thought.

" Hold on" she stopped Max, he turned around.

" What?" He asked and she quickly took off his mask.

" Max?......." She was shocked.

" And the fun starts" Mariana muttered to herself.RATE AND REVIEW
