"Ooh. Maybe I'll get the yellow tail roll. It that too much? I don't know if I should get it, I mean it's expensive - and we already have a lot…" He smirked.
"Alex, get it if you want it!" I said, frustrated.
"Hey, no need for the attitude, Aaron!" He said.
"Yeah Aaron. He was only joking." My mom said.
"I'm sorry - he was just - being annoying…" I muttered.
"And our dinner was going so well." He said.
"Okay, it's just that you were making me angry, because you were like -"I started to say.
"Look Aaron, just be quiet."He said sternly, and continued to say: "I didn't miss this."
"Me neither." I whispered under my breath.
"Alright, let's figure out what we should order." Alex said.
"I ordered what I want." Daniel said.
"I got al the things I want - and you can't have any." My mom said in a joking, but serious way.
"What?" Alex asked.
"Well you got what you want, and I got what I want. And I don't like your stuff, so we'll just eat separately." She replied.
"Mom - No… come on! This is supposed to be - like - it's like a minimalist theme. We're getting to much anyway. What will the waiters think of us!?"Alex said nervously.
"Oh honey, it doesn't matter - what we got is fine." My mom protested.
"No mom, please - let's just share."Alex continued.
"Okay - you can have a few." My mom allowed.
"And Aaron, what do you want?" Alex asked.
"What we got is fine." I said sullenly.
"Aaron will you just tell us what you want?" He asked a little louder.
"I told you. This is all fine." I said.
"No, come on Aaron." He said.
"I told you! Fine, lets also get a rainbow roll." I gave in.
"Alright. Let's order." He said, finally satisfied.
this sounds so familiar. I like how you made it into a series of dialogue.
