Raun POV

The plan was to work on our project but we're getting derailed from our objective to work on it asap.

So here we are, eating burgers at McRonald which is really not to my liking since I know what they do with their food. But she likes it so much that she even dipped her fries in her sundae which is rare in my opinion since most people dip theirs in a sauce, not in ice cream.

Why dip salty fries into sweet ice cream?

She tried to avoid spilling the cream but it spilled on me. I grabbed one of her fries and used it to wipe away the ice cream, then I eat it. 

I mean why not try something new?

To my surprise, it tastes good. 

Why?

''You're face says it all. You're thinking: How can they pair well with each other? Well, that's the unexpected pairing with you. You thought it wouldn't turn out well but in the end, it ends well.'' she said before munching another couple of fries.

I scratched my head, wanting to say retort about what she just said but I decided not to, I don't want to shoo her away. I won't have anyone to do this project with. So decided to drink my cola and just smiled at her.

''Yeah, it tastes good... '' I paused, 

I don't know her name. I'm gonna introduce myself first then I ask hers.

''I'm Raun, what's your name?'' I extended my hand to her, 

''Irene, Irene de los Santos...  so why did you choose me?'' she asked, pointing to her sundae-dipped fries as if that was menacingly enough for me.

I just choked at my cola, not prepared for her question. 

I grabbed my handkerchief and wipe all the droplets from my nose down to my mouth. The sensation of cola penetrating my nostrils burns. 

''Was that surprising to you that I asked you directly?'' she commented while waving around her mini fry wand before dipping it in her sundae and stuffing it in her mouth.

''Yes, normally people are not that direct and just eat,'' I replied, placing the handkerchief on the table. ''I thought you would be like them,''

''Well every person has a pair of butts, everyone has their own personality. I'm curious, so do tell me,'' she said as she placed both her elbows on the table, resting her chin on the back of her hands. 

''You just catches my eye, you seem smart and you are,'' I replied, looking at her in the eyes, to seem like I was telling her the truth.

''Bullsh+t, your PB who was always with you, was with her new boyfriend and you were the third wheelin-''

Before she could finish her sentence, I grabbed a fistful of fries and just smacked them right in her mouth, just to make her shut up.

Woman, if you just shut up, I would like you more - I thought to myself.

She glared at me but she still chewed her fries carefully before smacking me with her ice cream.

I was flabbergasted.

''Hey! What was that for?!'' I shriek as the ice cream penetrates my clothes, making stick close to my skin. 

''B*tch are you blind?! You gobsmacked me with your fries! You tryna kill me or what?!'' I can't believe her, she is the kind of person who doubles the pettiness delivered to her huh?

I grabbed her fries and dipped them at the scoop of ice scream trailing down to my chest then forcefully fed it to her. She was not prepared because she was busy getting angry at me but I couldn't care less. If she was petty, I can triple it.

Her cheeks got redder, to the point I thought I could see smoke coming out of her head. She started throwing things at me which I fought back.

A few minutes later, the manager came and kicked us both out of the establishment.

''So childish really on your part, Raun,'' she said before, standing up and patting away the salt and pepper stains on her clothes but that only triggers her to sneeze nonstop.

She looked so funny, I don't know why, but I feel relieved now.

I took out my tissue and helped her clean her face. She was really hit hard with S&P.

''Let's get cleaned up, and we can work on our project'' I removed the stains of ice scream near her eyes to help her see clearer, then wiped away the pepper on her nose.

''How can we clean ourselves if there's no washroom nearby, McRonald just kicked us out.'' she reasoned, before slapping the back of my neck.

''Ow! Be gentle with me will ya! Let's go, I'm sticky and it is getting cold, let's go!'' I grab her wrist and pull her towards where my car was parked at. 

I opened the passenger door for her before throwing her inside, it was tough to do since she really threw a fit but it worked.

''You'll pay for this,'' she angrily whispered before turning herself to her right side. Making it obvious that she was upset with me.

''What? I can't hear you.'' I teased then turned on the engine, I immediately put on a song by Bruno mars - smoking out the window. 

I looked back at her, thinking she would stay mad silently but I was dead wrong. She was painting the ice scream all over the dashboard door and window.

''Hey! You brat!'' 

I stomped hard on the accelerator, I need this petty bitch cleaned.

Damn woman!
