[ sitting on his scooter out in the parking lot of the building that he knows is alyssa's last class of the day, elbows braced against the handles as he waits. only checks the clock of his cellphone once when the stream of people appear, signaling the end of the hour. thinks about texting her, but manages to refrain, quietly waiting for a certain princess to appear. ]

[ curtsies half-way before hopping a few feet ahead... then stops. turns to anthony with a tilt of her head. ]

What do I do with this?

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

Sauce bath. Then the fire.

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

Soy sauce?

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

Better.

[ jerks his head toward the last set of trays. ]

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ looks down at them. ]

... there's too many! What do I get?

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

Teriyaki never does me wrong.

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

Then I'll get that too!

[ picks up the ladle and dips it into the teriyaki tray. motions for anthony to put his bowl closer to her. ]

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ extends the bowl toward her. ]

Five and a half scoops.

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ does as she's told with ease, giving him a tiny nod when she finishes. then dumps two into hers before placing the ladle back while looking around again. ]

[ glances toward where the two cooks are hard at work, handing off his bowl while motioning for alyssa to do the same. ]

Classes okay?

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ hands it over with a small "thank you!" to the man, turning back to anthony when she's done. ]

Yes, thank you. How are yours?

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ leads them back to their table, settling back into his chair when they arrive. ]

Profound.

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ blinks at him. looks up at the ceiling in thought. ]

I guess that's a good thing...

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ dings at his water glass with a finger. ]

I'm learning out of a dictionary.

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ blinks. looks upward. back down to him again. ]

Which class?

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

Management 101.

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

Well, it's a 101 class, so I wouldn't expect much out of it. I think...

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

My trust in the education system was crushed.

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

Oh, stop it! You worked very hard to get in there! It'll pick up eventually. Don't give up!

[ sniffs a bit. ]

Santa never existed.

1/2

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ blinks. ]

Santa does exist.

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ leans forward towards him, as if she's going to tell him the greatest secret of all time. gives a dramatic pause, and then: ]

My daddy is Santa.

1/2

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ automatic response. ]

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ ... then calms down. ]

Lies. I don't get coals for Christmas.

[prettymajor.livejournal.com]

[ laughs, shaking her head before leaning back again. ]

You're so silly. It's not just my daddy, but all parents of the world!
