#058 – Dinner
Dinner at the Michalchuk's
100 words
Alex liked having dinner at Paige's house. They were so normal that it was scary like one of those perfect television families. They passed the peas and asked each other how their day was. They laughed at corny jokes and fretted over the clog in the sink.
Dinner didn't consist of whatever they scrounge up, outdated or not. Paige's mother cooked four course meals complete with the rolls (and she always insisted Alex take a few home). Her parents didn't mind when they stole shy glances over the roast beef.
Alex wished that this happiness could be her reality always.
