“I wish I was there. Alice squealed, as we stood in line to get our food.

“You should have seen her, I think I created a baddie!” Nova purrs in excitement.

“Remind me not to cross you girls,” Alice giggled, before taking her orders.

“You are innocently more cruel than us,” Nova smirked as we walked to a table with our tray of food. As we sat, we noticed the glares from the popular table.
