Chapter 3

(Kim's POV)

Me: Baba Ghanoush is seriously the best thing ever.

Julie: No offense, Kim, but it's gross.

Mika: I know right. I hate it.

Me: Gee, guys. It's the best thing ever.

Julie: Anyway, so Jack-

*My phone rings*

Me: Oops, it's my dad. Be right back.

Me: *answers phone* Hi, Dad.

Dad: Hey, Kim! I have good news for you.

Me: Yeah, Dad?

Dad: Your cousin Grace is going to visit!

Me: Oh my gosh, Dad. Seriously!?

Dad: Yes! She's coming tomorrow.

Me: Oh my gosh, I can't wait.

Dad: Guess thats all. See you later, take care okay, Kim?

Me: Of course, dad. Bye!

*i hung up the phone and went back inside Falafel Phil's*

Mika: So what'd your dad say?

Me: My cousin Grace is coming for a visit tomorrow! I'm so pumped.

Julie: Oh, cool. What's she like?

Me: Well, she's the complete opposite of me. She's very girly.

Mika: Then why do you seem to like her so much?

Me: We get along really well, you know. She's also my childhood best friend.

Mika: Is she pretty?

Me: The last time I saw her was years ago. But from the pictures I've been seeing on instagram and everything, she's really really pretty.

Julie: Well then I can't wait to see her, hahaha.

Me: So, Julie, what were you gonna say about Jack?

Julie: Oh, umm. I forgot.

Mika: Julie! Y u no remember?

Julie: Sorry, girls. My memory is pretty bad sometimes.

Me: Oh well. I gotta go home and clean the house and all. Grace is coming tomorrow. Catch up with you guys later, bye!

Julie and Mika: Bye!

(Jack's POV)

Me: Guys, I really feel like eating baba ghanoush.

Eddie: Dude, that stuff's gross! No offense.

Jerry: Yeah, man. I hate it.

Milton: You know what I noticed, all of us but you, Jack, and Kim are the only ones who like baba ghanoush.

Me: What can you say, we're really best friends.

Milton: No, no. I know that. But could you be like soul mates or something?

Me: What! No. Milton, it's nothing. Stop thinking about what happened. It's already been a while since it happened.

Me: Wow, I haven't seen Kim in a few days. Maybe I should visit her tomorrow with some baba ghanoush.

Milton: Aw that's sweet.

Me: That's what best friends do.

Jerry: Guys, if I tell you something, would you make fun of me?

Me: Depends what it's about.

Eddie: Yeah, I agree with Jack.

*Eddie, Jack and Milton laughs*

Jerry: I've been liking Mika for a while now… Do you think I should ask her out?

*Eddie, Jack and Milton laughs again*

Me: Man, I never knew that. Well, give it a shot.

Eddie: Yeah, you'd make a good couple.

Jerry: Really, guys? Thanks! You guys are the best.

Milton: Uh, guys?

Me, Eddie and Jerry: Yeah?

Milton: I've also been liking Julie for a while now. I wanna ask her out but what if she says no? Gah.

Eddie: Yeah, you'd make a good nerd couple. *laughs*

Me: Guys, YOLO. If you like someone, just go for it. Don't ever let her go. Just hold on to her.

Eddie: Well, Jack, I guess it's just the two of us who haven't found a girl yet.

Me: Yeah… I've dated so many girls. But none of them felt right, at all. I wonder who the right one for me is.

Milton: Don't worry, Jack. I'm sure the right girl is somewhere near you. And you've already met her.

Me: Huh? Who?

Milton: Kim Crawford. Who else could it be?

Me: Milton, she's my best friend. It can't be her. And it's so obvious that I'm also not her type.

Jerry: Yeah, Kim likes boys like me. Handsome and tough.

Eddie: Jerry, get over yourself, man.

Milton: I've done a research, it's not impossible to fall in love with your best friend, you know.

Me: Yeah, I know. But Kim and I are just really best friends. Nothing more than that.

Jerry: Guys, come on. Jack and Kim don't have feelings for each other, okay? How many times do they have to say it. Just help me out with Mika.

Me: Jerry is right. Stop wasting our time on this. Let's just help the people who actually have feelings for each other.

Milton: Well, I really really like Julie.

Eddie: Don't worry, man. I'll help you both out.

Me: Yeah, me too.
