    for like… three years.” “Wow. Long time.” “Yeah. But I was only mad for like the first week. After that, it was just pride. I didn’t want to be the one to make amends. It was his fault.” She came up behind me and dipped her finger into the butter and sugar I was softening. “All his fault.” “He adores you,” I said softly. “I can see that. You must have killed him, ignoring him like that.” She sucked her finger thoughtfully. “Serves him right. He used to be really mean. He’s gone soft since my sister had kids. Kinda turned into a sweet, old grandfather. I wish he’d been like that when I was a kid.” “People change,” I said. “You wouldn’t expect it but they do.” “Your parents could’ve changed,” she retaliated softly. “Just saying.” “Maybe. I doubt it. They were very… cold.” “Hmm.” I didn’t look at her. “Tell me about the restaurant again,” I said. “I want to hear about it.” She sighed, knowing I was changing the subject but she didn’t call me out on it. Instead, she sat down on the countertop with her legs crossed and began talking. “So it’d be a smart building. Big, but not too big. A small sign, because everybody would already know where it was, and we wouldn’t need to attract attention. Inside, the tables would be wooden, kind of traditional, with matching chairs.

Like the ones who think the quality of food is defined by the price.” She laughed. “Only, they actually do like the food too. The kind of people who’d wear diamonds and cufflinks. And we’d have really hot waiters, so that even if people didn’t like the food, they’d still want to come back.” I smirked. “Well then the waitresses would have to be hot too.” “Okay, fine. Hot waitresses. Like… Megan Fox?” I laughed. “I was thinking more like you.” She bit her lip. “They would be very pretentious too. So I wouldn’t need to worry about you falling in love with any of them.” I laughed again. “Not much chance of that happening.” “Anyway, so everybody would love the food. We’d get great reviews. We might even get celebrity diners. You know, like Chris Martin might just pop in for a quick dinner and then tell all his friends how awesome it was. Because it really would be that awesome. The food would be amazing, the service would be brilliant and it wouldn’t be like crazy expensive. We’d have entertainment on Wednesdays. My brother’s actually in a band you know. We could get him to play.” “I wish we could actually do this,” I said quietly. “I honestly wish that everything you just said would come true.” She turned to me, her eyes sparkling. “We can do it. Let’s do it.” “We don’t have that kind of money,” I said, but even as ...
