"Alright then, let's eat!"

"I'm famished " I said as I grabbed the fork from the table and began to eat.

"So what do you have to tell us ?!" I asked , turning to Diane in the middle of our meal.

"Hmm" she exhaled with a small smile as she pushed her plate further into the table indicating she was done . She picked up a serviette and wiped the corner of her mouth.

I said as I made to walk out."No! We're still having a conversation and you won't walk out on me " she snapped as she held my hands."Or is this about Mabel , Dwayne ?!""Leave Mabel out of this !" I snapped "Oh so it really is about Mabel " she said as she let go of my hand."Why did you go to her behind my back!""To harass her?!' I added ."Oh !
