Hun looks around, as his eyes were resting on multiple glass tables and wooden chairs with the rails made in iron. On one, there is an Inkling male talking with another one in front of him. He was holding a spoon on his right hand, which immerges inside a soup, as white smoke faintly raise from it.
On another chair, a female Inkling is sitting while holding a fork on her left hand and a kitchen knife on the other. She was looking at a white meat, with sprinkles of parsley, resting on a white, circular plate. Behind the plate, a wine glass of red wine. To the left of the plate, a small closed laptop with a logo of a Splattershot-like weapon on its center.
A whistle is heard: the boy turns around, seeing Grina smiling. Her eyes were pointing at a plate of fried fish, with mixed salad near it. Behind, a smaller plate of French fries with 2 small bowls containing respectively a red sauce and another white one. Next to the smaller plate, a red thin can with the white logo reading "Squid-a-Cola".
"Is this their canteen? I sure don't see any blobby substances on the plates!" She grins, folding her arms.
"Tsk." Mirii lowers her eyebrows. "Do you really think such professional and serious organization, couldn't afford the most perfect meals for the members?"
"Yeah, no offense… we could really chow down a burger for lunch!" She rubs her hands.
"Girl… I don't see any meat between two pieces of bread." Bars downturns his mouth, while slightly raising his eyebrows, as his head was turning left and right.
"Maybe we have the luxury of requesting the food we want to eat!" Grina raises her forefinger.
"Good luck with that." Mirii walks to her right. "My meat and salad are already on display."
Hun looks at the girl, as she bends down and picking up a light-brown food tray sitting on the top of an identical pile, located on the lowest shelf. On the medium shelf, there are blackish transparent boxes containing respectively a pile of forks, spoons, kitchen knives and paper handkerchiefs. Near the boxes, a pile of large papers with the image of a meat on a plate and a message reading:
"CALAMAST
Fresh meals for our fresh clients."
"Heh, I remember you said to take just a salad." Grina walks along with Bars, near the food trays.
"I never said such thing." Mirii picks up a large paper, putting it on the food tray. "I said that I'd take a salad."
"Isn't that the same thing?" She snickers, hitting Bars with her right elbow.
"Hmpf." Mirii takes the kitchen knife, putting it next to the fork. She turns over Grina. "The phrase doesn't contain any word, which would imply I'm going to take only a salad. Therefore, you can't claim how your childish teases affect my lunch choices: in fact, the meat I'll take is going to be white, which is full of nutrients and proteins, unlike your unhealthy combo of bread tasting like plastic, meat containing more than 50% of fat and salad drenching in oil, along with an overabundance of ketchup and mayonnaise."
Silence followed for a few seconds.
"In other words… you don't want to look like a cowfish, right?" Grina smiles, while lowering her eyebrows.
A vein popped on her forehead, as she frowns a lot.
"Why you large excuse of a friend, HOW DID YOUR MIND ARRIVE AT SUCH LOGIC?! WHAT ARE YOUR LOGICAL CONNECTIONS?!" She grits her teeth, while expanding her eyes.
"No Mirii!" Hun stands in front of her, while opening his arms sideways. "Don't attack Grina, please! You don't look anything like a cowfish! Actually, you look… you look like a beautiful flower!"
Suddenly, Mirii's face got extremely red as her vein disappears. Her heart was almost jumping out of her chest. Hun looks around, as everyone was watching him.
"… wh-why are you looking at me…? Wh-what did I say…?" His eyebrows raise.
"Big bro… ya said that she looks like a beautiful flower…" Fara smiles while clasping her hands.
Hun's face got extremely red, as his neck bends forward instantly.
"Ah…" He turns jerkily over Mirii. "Ehm… well… you see… I… eeehhhmmm… I… … oh wait! Th-the meat is almost gone! I have to get some for Fara!"
He rushes over the food tray pile, picking up one and then running towards a counter, with a window separating it from open, rectangular boxes showing red and white meat on each. Mirii kept looking at the boy, as he raises his forefinger and shouts "Excuse me!" at an old male Inkling wearing a chef hat.
Grina lowers her head towards Mirii's left ear.
"You should talk to him, later… in private." She whispers.
"What?! Why I should?!" Her head quickly turns over Grina.
"You know very well the reason… me and Bars will take a walk around the city." Her left eye winks at Bars.
"Oh? Ah… yeah, sure!" He nods, while winking at her with his right eye.
Fara looks behind: Hun was holding the food tray, with three plates of meat on it. He was walking towards the others.
"Fara, come!" He takes a fork and a kitchen knife with his left hand. "Lunch is served!"
"Yay!" She jumps, clapping multiple times.
The small girl walks behind Hun, as he puts the food tray on a table with no one sitting on the chairs nearby.
The Inklings were sit around a glass table. On Hun's left side there is Fara and on his right side, there is Mirii. In front of Mirii, there is Bars and on Bars' right side, there is Grina.
In front of Hun, a food tray with a red meat cut in a half, a paper handkerchief bended in two parts and a small bottle of Inkling water with a tag on it reading "Mountain Fresh", with a medium glass nearby. He was holding a fork on one hand and the kitchen knife on the other.
On the food tray, situated in front of Grina, two breads with a burger and salad in between: the front borders are in a half-circle shape and a paper handkerchief was wrapped on the bottom part. Behind, a can of Squid-a-Cola with the tab hanging on the top of a small hole, as small blackish drops were around it.
Bars was chewing with his cheeks puffed, as he was holding two breads with just a burger in between: there is no paper handkerchief nearby. Behind the food tray, an orange can with the logo reading "Fank", surrounded by oranges.
Mirii was cutting a small part of a white meat, as the fork was penetrated through the top of the piece. She puts the piece inside her mouth.
"Anyway!" Grina looks at Hun, as he was cutting a small piece of red meat. "You have to know what we did in our recent mission: it was insane!"
"Really?" He puts a small piece of red meat inside his mouth.
"Really! We were about to kick everyone's butt, when a ray made us grow!" She takes the breads with her hands on the handkerchief, biting on the front part.
"You grow…?" Fara tilts her head.
"Yes." Mirii was cutting another piece of meat. "They increased our sizes through the use of technology. We were as tall as the buildings."
"REALLY?!" Fara stands up, with her eyes expanded. "I wanna grow too!"
Mirii turns her head over the small girl.
"Why?"
"Because I 'an protect my brother from ever' bad guys!" She clenches her fists, as her eyes were sparkling.
"Ehm…" Hun raises his eyebrows. "I don't think I like the idea you are bigger than our own house…"
"But, big bro!" Her head turns over him, as her eyebrows raise. "I could squish any baddies with ease!"
She pushes her palms towards themselves, twisting them.
"You could also squish us!" He puts the fork and the knife on the plate.
"Wha…?" She left her mouth open, then she shakes her head. "N-no, I couldn't…"
"You could step on someone, while walking backwards!"
Fara gasped, as she looks behind on the floor.
"Or even under your nose!"
She looks on her feet.
"And besides… you will not be able to hug me anymore!"
"No!" She wraps her arms around him, as her forehead lies on his left cheek. "I wanna hug you a lot, Hun!"
He smiles, caressing the top of her head.
"Then, you have to promise… be taller than me, but shorter than the door!"
She nods, smiling.
"Promise sown in my heart!" She rubs his cheek with her forehead.
Grina smiles.
"To think that sometimes, he doesn't remember stuff said two seconds ago…"
Mirii smiles, while looking at the boy.
"No one will be around… when I'll talk with you, Hunley." Her thought was running around her mind.
