Chapter 6: Memories
"Mana?"
"Hmm?"
"We have to eat breakfast and get to the school in three hours. You remember don't you?"
"Of course. I was looking for a small conner store I saw a few days ago. It looked good is all."
"Oh."
Mana felt bad for lying to Mahad but she drove and came to a small coffee shop that had a few cars. Hopefully he'd believe her lie.
"See?"
"Okay Sissy you where right."
Mana smiled and helped Mahad out. How had the difficult task of getting him out become so easy to her? As she was doing it her mind swarmed his name.
The time they had gone to eat breakfast in the hospital cafeteria and him dumping a baked potato.
By the time she had finished the task of getting Mahad inside coffee shop and getting him a seat her mind had given her so many memories. Each branching out from a less painful one to a more painful one.
"Can I offer y'all somethun ta eat?"
"Coffe and a glass milk. Two wanna nut muffins and.." Mana looked at the tables around her trying to decide what else she'd take. "Oh two croissant sandwiches."
"Egg and bacon on them?"
"Yes Ma'am."
The waitress walked off and Mana turned to Mahad.
"I have no idea how much money I just spent."
Mahad let out a pearl of giggles.
"I do that a lot."
Mahad only laughed harder.
"I think buying something and knowing the price makes you expect it to taste better or you buy it for the price not the taste. So this way I'm getting and honest plate."
Mahad only laughed harder and Mana had a small smile as she tilted her head to look at him.
Out of the corner of her eye she thought she saw Mako so she shot her head around only to find a man with long dark hair and glasses, not the one she was hopping for at all.
This was going to be the worst breakup of her life.
