Saturday is absolutely the best day of the week. Not least because they serve pancakes for saturday morning breakfast.

Whoever invented Saturdays was definitly having one INSPIRED day...

Today, i'm ready to go to the dining hall first (which is surprising, and possibly the first time this has happend EVER).

"Come onnnnnn, Elphie! All the strawberry ones will be gone!"

"You don't have to wait for me, you know. I've survived a surprisingly long time going to breakfast by myself..."

"You may have survived it, but who knows what it'll do to me?" It's beyond tragic to let your roommate walk into breakfast by herself. Also i'm afraid that if i go down by myself, Milla or Shen-shen will latch onto me again, and i might have to kill myself if they do.

"Actually..." Your avoiding my eyes now, still pretending to be absorbed with brushing out your hair "I think i'll skip breakfast today"

"But you love pancakes..."

"I'm...not hungry..."

"Oh Oz, what an amazing liar you are..."

"Stop it, Glinda. You can go to breakfast on your own for once, it won't kill you"

"That's what you think..."

When you ignore me, i change tactic.

"Elphie? Why don't you want to come down?"

"It's nothing. I'm just not hungry"

"If its nothing, then just come to keep me company. Please, i need someone intelligent to talk to before my mind turns to candyfloss!"

"No"

"WHY?"

"No reason!"

"Then prove it, and come down!"

"Glinda, please just leave me alone!"

I know i may not be helping...but damn, i HAVE to figure out what it is!

But i realise i should probably be doing this better. When i sit next to you on the bed, you move away half-heartedly, and then give up.

"I'll leave you alone later, i promise. But right now i need to annoy you until you tell me whats wrong."

"Really?"

"Yep. I can do this all day if i have to." A pause. "Oh pleeeeeease, Elphie!" A longer pause. "You came to breakfast yesterday. Why is today different?"

"Glinda, please just let it go..."

"Why won't you tell me?"

"I can't tell you..." You sigh, and flop back onto the quilt "because now its been built up to much, and it was kind of stupid to begin with, and now it sounds REALLY stupid, and so i'd rather not say it out loud."

"Oh"

Okay, now i REALLY don't know what to say. I mean, i feel mean to force you now....but i REALLY want some breakfast.

And i kind of suspect that you do, too. Whatever you say.

I lean my head against the wall, and try to think of something.

You're silent.

Then: "Elphie?"

"If you ask me to tell you again, i swear to Oz, Glinda...."

"No, that wasn't what i was going to say... Elphie, do you want to go out for breakfast?"
