Let’s Be Friends
Seeing an introverted person sitting alone at lunch irritated Mirches. They’re so out of touch with the world and she couldn’t see how anyone didn’t like talking that much.
Mirches could barely go ten seconds without talking, however, she did understand that when people come to high school everyone’s clique is already established amongst themselves. So obviously, it’s hard to join in and have some friends. But nonetheless, that’s not going to stop her.
Mirches hops from her chair, approaching a boy, whom often is by their self.
Mirches slams her hand on his table catching his attention. She looks him in the eye and says, “Come sit with me.”
The boy nervously shifts his eyes back and forth, and awkwardly replied, “Uh, do I know you?”
“Well, allow me to introduce myself; I’m Mirches Pelimaiz, I like to talk a lot and you like to be quiet. We’re gonna be best friends!” She geeks.
The boy awkwardly laughs at her, responding, “Okay… ‘best friend’.”
Mirches gazes at him for a long time, seemingly waiting for something out of him.
“What?” The boy questioned oddly.
“Well, what is your name!” She geeks again.
The boy chuckles a bit. “I’m Kitajin Difonzis.”
“So, Kitajin, what do you like to do?” Mirches sits next to him, resting her chin on the palm of her hand.
“I like to play football.” He tells her.
Mirches eyes widened as she says, “Wow! Really?”
Kitajin nods his head.
“Well, I can see that. You built like Dwayne Johnson.”
They burst out laughing, then she tells him, “Well, I like to write poetry and sing Disney songs when I’m bored.”
“That’s cool.” He causally remarks.
“Yeah, I sing Hannah Montana sometimes.”
Kitajin laughs again while Mirches keeps a poker face, like, it’s nothing.
But at least he’s having a good time. So far, it’s starting off good with Mirches, but it led her curious to ask, “So, um, why are you alone again?”
Kitajin shrugged his shoulders. “Most of my friends are in detention or taking a test.”
“Okay… I’m going back to my friends table. Tomorrow, I better see you talking to somebody, mister!” She teased, as she gets up.
“Okay, but what if I can’t find somebody, it’s hard.”
“Who cares! Who cares how hard it is, just live life! You only live once. YOLO!” She says, as she dips while Kitajin laughs again.
The next day she comes to the cafeteria, seeing Kitajin sitting alone again. “Oh gosh!” She mumbled, marching to his table.
Once again, she slams her hand on his table and ask, “Why are you alone again? I told you go get some friends, chump!”
Kitajin giggles telling her, “Maybe I was waiting on you.” Intimately locking eyes with her.
Mirches turns away saying, “Oh, don’t make me blush, you dog.” She giggles flirtatiously. She turns back around saying, “Lets go to the movies this Saturday, you dog.”
Kitajin chuckles asking, “Alright, which one?”
“Let’s go watch ‘Dancing With Pain’.”
“Can we not watch a depressing movie.” Kitajin knitted an eyebrow. “Let’s watch something like… Code Stupid.”
Mirches rolls her eyes, and said, “Fine. But next time, we’re seeing Dancing With Pain.”
“Fine by me. It’s a date.”
