“Ella finished her burger and dug into a side of fries. Hi watched, enraptured.
She couldn't help but notice. “Would you like one?�
“What? Sure.� Hi smiled, made no move.
After a moment, Ella nudged the bowl his way. “Careful, they're still hot.�
“Oh, no problem.� Hi fumbled for a fry. “I like food that's hot.�
I caught Shelton slowly shaking his head.
“Oh, shoot!� Ella winced. “I forgot to stop by the office. My mother had to drop off my shin guards.� She slid her fries over to Hi. “Enjoy. They're hot, which apparently you like.�
“Got that right. Hot hot hot!� Hi awkwardly shoved another fry into his mouth.
“Okay, wow.� Ella gathered her things, then brushed my cheek with a kiss. “Later, Tor.� Shouldering her bag, she hurried from the cafeteria.
A loud thunk drew my attention back to the table.
Hi's forehead was resting on his tray. “Tell me that wasn't as bad as I think.�
“Worse,� Shelton said. “So, so much worse.�
Then head rose, then thunked back down. “I don't remember parts. I think I lost time.�
I patted his shoulder. “That's probably for the best.�
“Such.� Thunk. “A.� Thunk. “Dumbass.� Thunk.
Shelton laughed nervously. “See? That's why I don't talk.�
Hi's face shot up. “Tell her I have brain seizures. A serious medical condition. Or that I have an evil twin who sometimes takes my place, but can't talk for crap.�
“Got it," I promised. His head dropped once more.”

“Say "no" to corruption; it does not fit you! Say "no" to bad leadership; you don't fit there. Say "no" to immorality; it will only fake you! Be bold to say "no" if that is what will take your breakfast away; you will get a sweeter lunch pack for compensation sooner.”
