The bench - Part 2

The four siblings continue to talk about Netflix shows, TV shows and movies they've watched recently or a long time ago for a few more minutes, until someone appears on the scene. And that someone is the Biology Teacher of High School Armand Calinescu, but he seems to not walk alone on this nice day in the Park. The teacher walks alongside with a woman, that looks older than the thirty-four years old teacher.

"Look." says Roberto whispering to his brothers and sister who were still discussing about the difference between animated American shows and animated Japanese shows.

The siblings saw the teacher walking alongside with the woman in the Park, they were about to wave at him, but the man was too caught in the whatever the conversation with that old lady was having, he wasn't even noticing the siblings, who decides to walk away from there and go to the nearest shop to busy some snacks and drinks for him and the old lady.

After the small duo left the said shop, the four siblings can feel some thirsty and hungry for a small snack.

"Want to buy some snacks?" they ask at the same time, creeping them a bit.

The four siblings are going to the small bar from the Park who contains drinks who are at an exaggerated price, but since Robert is the only one banknote of one hundred RON's in his pocket, he decides to do the treat this time. But he also has to be careful with the money because some things have started to get expensive since Winter is approaching the country and the city by the name of Pitesti.

The small bar inside the Strand Park is having at least ten tables, each having four chairs and umbrellas, that possess the logo of Ciucaș beer as sponsorship where the owner of the Bar is getting added fifty percentage of the sales. The owner of the bar is a bald man with a long beard, he is checking his smartphone, but when the brothers and sister have come to the desk, the cashier looked a little confused at this, he thought he sees four times. After a few seconds, the cashier looks at the four teenagers who are looking at the refrigerator with beer and normal drinks.

"Hello! What would you like to buy?" asks the cashier.

"Hello, sir!" responds Robert to the cashier. "We would like to buy four Pepsi bottles and four bags of Lays."

"Um… Are you four?" he does a sign of the hand showing to the other three persons who are looking at the cashier.

"Yes, we are related."

"Oh, good." he says feeling relieved. "Thought I forget my lenses."

The cashier goes to the shelves where are the Lays put, there are over six different types of chips in flavour and the cashier asks.

"What flavour would you like?"

"Paprika." says Roberto.

"Paprika." responds Roberta.

"Um… Barbecue." says Roby.

"Just one?" ask Roman to Roberto, who immediately gave him that angry look to take only one. "Okay. I would like… Mushrooms?"

"Out of mushrooms." says the cashier.

"Fine… Barbecue beef ribs?"

"Alright." says the cashier taking two bags of Lays with Paprika, one with simple barbecue, and one bag with Barbecue beef ribs, which is slightly different in taste that the normal Barbecue. And before he would get the drinks, the brother picked them from the refrigerator, which we're all Pepsi drinks. The cashier calculates the product amounts and tells the guys.

"It is about thirty-six RON's."

Roberto pays the drinks and the chips bags, they all thank the cashier of the store, and they leave the man, wondering and looking at them as they leave.

"D-Didn't I know them from somewhere?"

On the same bench, the group of four siblings are hanging in there like some good friends, eating chips and drinking juices. And Roberta decides to start some small conversation.

"Which type of high schooler are you?"

"Huh?" asks Robert. "Where that came from?"

"I just wanted to start a small conversation, brother."

"Well." says Roman. "I would probably be the overweight nerd who is staying all his day on the computer, and one day, he would probably get a girlfriend like in those romance comedies."

"Continue to dream." says Roby feeling a sad for his quadruplet brother.

"Sh-Shut up!" says Roman to Roby. "And you would be the jerk jock type."

"He got a point." says Roberta.

"Oi. Then you are the pretty girl who thinks she is popular." says Roby.

"I do not think I am popular." says Roberta to Roby. "Also thank you for calling me pretty." she looks at Robert. "Guess you are the big brother type who knows everything."

"Y-You might say that." says Robert feeling a little embarrassed by this. "But it doesn't matter the roles we have, right guys? What does matter is to be ourselves, right?"

The group is looking a little creped at their brother and they say to him at the same time. All three of them.

"Cringe."

"Hey!" says Robert to his brothers and sister.

The group stays for a few more minutes on the park, until Roman gets a phone call from her mother to come back home because it is starting to be late. Roman takes his stuff, waves goodbye to his friends and walks to his home, then Roby decides to also get his stuff and tells Roman.

"Wait!" says Roby. "I am also coming with you."

"Eh. Why?" asks Roman surprised by this.

"Someone I know lives in the same as yours. It would be troubled to go with you?"

"N-N-No. Not at all." says Roman a little scared by the face Roby was making when he said that sentence. For him, it looked like something straight up from a horror movie.
