Nicola finished the apple juice, looking up at her and tilting his head. "Pictionary? I'm really good at Uno too. Oh, and Candyland! I love Candyland."

Lix silently ponders how this kid ended up getting the queen rank. Then remembers that this behavior always got people to let their guard down. "No," she directs his attention to the girl, "Why don't you see if you can earn her trust by getting her number."

"Okay!" Nicola's eyes twinkled and he gave her a thumbs up. So. . . are we going to play Candyland after I do that?

((Hey, what time is it for everyone? For me it's 6:43 am))

(are you an Aussie? Cause adding the 11 mins since you posted this you're on the same time as me)

"So, Gen. Tell me. Are you keeping up on your schoolwork like you promised?"

Nicola went up to the girl, a big smile on his rosy cheeks. "Can you hold something for me?"

"Oh, you're cute. But she's in the middle of a convo here. Bye," Aaleyah says, smiling as she shoos him away.

"Oh. I'm really sorry for interrupting your conversation. But thank you for the compliment." What do I do? If I stay, it'd be rude, but if I don't, Lix will kill me.

Lix took a drink of holy water and watched as Nicola was over eager and did not wait for the opportune moment to introduce himself. She laughed and waited to see how he recovers.

Aaleyah's phone rings. "Why can't you catch the bus?" She talks in Arabic. "Get mum to pick you up."…. "I'm working."….. "Fine. Be there in ten." She turns to Nicola. "You're lucky. I have to pick my brother up from soccer practice."

"Oh, he plays soccer?" Lix: "I'm not a soccer mom." Nicola looked at the girl in wonder. "Are you a soccer mom?"

((Hey, what time is it for everyone? For me it's 6:43 am))

((Yes I am :D ))

(yay I have an Australian friend!)

"Oh, he plays soccer?" Lix: "I'm not a soccer mom. Nicola looked at the girl in wonder. "Are you a soccer mom?"

"I'm 21. I'm not old enough to be a mum, let alone a soccer mum. No, my stupid brother Nazir is too lazy to catch the bus he normally catches, so of course he calls me. You should probably come with me Gen. You're not old enough to even be here."

"I'll be fine."

Do soccer moms have a specific age? Interesting. "My friend wants your number." Nicola blurted out, stealing quick glances at Lix.

"Now she looks old enough to be your mum. I'll be back soon Gen. Don't leave until I get back."

"Okay." Genevieve smiles and swings her legs on her chair. ((does that make sense? I hope it makes sense.))

"I'm 18," Nicola pouted, looking down at the floor.

"You prick," She whispers to her self, "Your supposed to get it for yourself." Nicola my child… I look at most twenty five, B— She felt strangely offended by the comment.

"Miss, can I borrow a pencil?" Nicola tapped the girl on the shoulder. (Gen)

"I… um… sure!" Genevieve started looking through her bag. "I'll see if I have one."
