Bonnie walked with her plate to a mesa, tabla and wanted to start eating when she felt a pair of eyes burning in her back. She looked up and saw Keith standing siguiente to her shooting her a meaningful glance. Bonnie, not wanting to be rude, waved at the asiento opposite of her. Keith walked around the table, put his plate down and sank on the chair.
“Keith Dason” Keith introduced himself. Bonnie accepted his hand. “Bonnie Bennett” she said. She started eating.
Keith, however, didn’t touch his food, but kept staring at Bonnie. Bonnie looked up, feeling uneasy. She swallowed.
“Why, eh, why are tu here?” she asked to be polite.
“I saw something” Keith said. “My friend’s corazón got ripped out”
Bonnie looked at her plate. “That must have been awful” she mumbled. Keith nodded.
“She was a really close friend. We met three years ago. She was going through a hard time. Her parents kicked her out of the house, because she was…different”
Bonnie took a deep breath. “Different” she dicho soft. “I’d know how that feels”
“You do?” Keith asked curious.
Bonnie’s face stiffened. “Yeah, but not anymore” she quickly recovered herself. “I’m just like everyone else now”
“There was a time tu weren’t?” Keith continued guessing.
Bonnie got up and took her plate. “I have to go”
“Oh” Keith said, sounding disappointed. “Eh, talk to tu later?” he asked hopeful.
“Yeah, sure” Bonnie dicho and she walked away.
