I shove the phone in my bag and walk inside our apartment. Mom and dad are having dinner with Leslie. They seem happy. They talked and laugh and it’s really great. I ignored them and walk past them but mom stopped me.

“Your dinner is served.”

” Thanks mom.” I reply and rush upstairs. I toss my bag on my bed and climb downstairs to eat. I’ve been starving and i didn’t even notice.

I sit close to Leslie and pick out a fork to eat after praying.

” So sinners do pray ?” Mom tease, drinking her glass of juice. I secretly roll my eyes and continue eating.

” So how are you enjoying your job at Sandy’s ?” Dad ask.

” Very fine , thanks dad.”

” Can I know the reason why you choose to work ?”

” College is starting in a week’s time. I’m tired of staying at home without having something to do.”

” Wow. That’s epic.” Leslie scowl.

“Do you have male customers ?” Mom asks and that bothers me.

” We do.” I reply looking at both my parents.
