Page 10 - 11

Ethan’s statement brought a halt to every single thing that was going on at the table, one of Ethan’s friend sitting on his right, he is ROB, 19 Indian, scrawny and bald

ROB
(shocked)
Why???


The words from Rob causes a chain reaction from the other 4 on the table, they are DAVION in glasses, 19, Chinese, overweight, with fair complexion and bald. TIMMY, 19, Chinese, lean, with fair complexion and long hair. JOHNNY in glasses, 19, Chinese, tan and spiky hair. TRACY, 19, Chinese, fair complexion with long hair

TIMMY
(curious)
6 months..Wanna tell us why???


TRACY
(irritated)
When both of us saw her..I gave in
to you...so..


Before Tracy could finish

JOHNNY
(smirks)
Dude..he beat you to the punch..
you didn't ‘give in’


The 6 of them on the table starts laughing

DAVION
(got serious)
Okay..Ethan..WHY??


TRACY
(points his finger at Ethan)
You better have a fucking
good reason man..


ETHAN
(long pause)
(to Tracy)
Why are you complaining man..you
got a prettier girl than her 2
days later..


Annoy with the fact that Ethan change the topic and in act of spite Davion takes a puff of the cigarette already in between his fingers and exhales it on Ethan’s face

ETHAN
(dodge the smoke)
Alright alright..but promise me..
this stays on the table okay??


ROB
(puts his left hand on the
right side of his chest)
I swear to whatever Gods I pray
to..(while shaking his head
indicating ‘no’) yes..


Ethan shyly exchanges looks with them

ETHAN
(long pause)
(hesitant)
She....(scoffs) she...


JOHNNY
Elisha..while I have always pointed
the fact that you are a girl, you’ve
always not disappointed me..and..


ETHAN
(sweeps his hair to the back
with both hands)
This is so fucking embarrassing..


JOHNNY
(yawns, and stretches his arms)
OOoOOoOOohhhh~~


ETHAN
(whispers)
She makes me feel like a necrophilia!!


A moment of awkward silence takes place on the table after Ethan finally spill the beans. Seconds later the 5 of them burst laughing, the laughter from the table in turn contributs to unwanted attention by the other patrons of the restaurant, embarrassed by the laughter Ethan takes the easy way out and laugh together with them
