Max and his date.

To all my reviewers.

Your reviews truly make my day . Thanks for reviewing.

Max entered FameFlamè. Soft, romantic music was playing. He looked around till he found someone who looked like what Tyson had described.
"Miss. Lonjia?" he asked smiling.
"Yes," she said with an accent. "How did you recognise me?"
"My friend told me you were very beautiful," he said sitting opposite her.
Two tables away Ray muttered, "That's our Max. Expert Flirt." The bladebreakers had decided to teach Kai and Kenny how to behave nicely in front of girls. And what better than following Max's example. They had disguised themselves (poorly) and followed Max. Kai and Kenny were dragged against their wills. Hilary, Mariah and Mariam were also present.
Back to Max. Max liked his date. She was a red head. He liked red heads as a rule. She had an accent. Another plus point. And she was very beautiful. "So, what do you do?" asked Max pleasantly.
"I wake up, eat (low fat food), roam around, eat, roam around, eat and sleep," she said in her accented voice.
Max continued smiling even though he was a little daunted at his date being so dumb. He wondered what Kai would have done with such a date. Killed her with his death glares and sarcastic remarks?
Max was patient, "No, I mean what's your job?"
"Oh that!" she exclaimed putting a manicured hand to her red lips. "Modeling. I am a model."
Max grimaced mentally. His mom didn't like models. Not that she would interfere in his life. Judy Tate had become liberal over the years. But still it was a thought.
Max decided to change the topic, "What do you want to have? Salad for starters?"
"Oh," she said, "you needn't worry about that I already ordered."
At that moment the waiter arrived, not even giving time to Max to think if this new trait was a good or bad one.
Lonjia had taken only a bite of her salad when she screamed, "Waiter!"
Max tried to calm her down as people began looking at their table, pointing with grim looks. Max hated making a scene. He didn't find Lonjia very beautiful now. But she didn't listen. She screamed and screamed until the waiter came. "Yes, ma'am."
"What did I tell you? Tell me. What did I tell you about the dressing on my salad?" her voice had lost the accent that had endeared Max so much during the start.
"You wanted it done the Italian style as it had less calories," replied the waiter self confidently.
"I just read your menu board," she pointed at the board behind the cakes and buns quarter. "It says you only serve European dressing. You should have told me that you don't have Italian dressing," she finished.
The waiter informed her, "Italy is in Europe."
"Don't lie," said Lonjia confidently.
Max felt faint. Dumbness, he could bear. Modeling, he could ignore. The fake accent, he could forgive. But someone so drastically ignorant in his favourite subject, he could never love.
He stayed through the rest of the meal because he was kind hearted but was hugely relieved when the time came to say goodbye.

Tyson was still laughing two hours later. "You should have seen the way your face changed colour. At first you were blushing red. Then, a bit pale and finally you went green."
"You all should have at least got a girl who knows where Italy is!" Max complained. "What do you all want? A comedy show every time I step out with her. No way. I am not seeing her again. Ever. I mean, even Kai was laughing."
That just made Tyson laugh all the more.
"And why didn't you all tell me that you were coming too?" Max stormed. His mood had gone from bad to worse when he came home and saw Mariam laughing with the others. He didn't know why he felt awful. But he did. And he hated Mariam at the moment. How dare laugh at his expense?

Suggestions.
Shirley for Kenny.
