“No… Lies.” Steve argues.
“I’m sure.” Soda says.
“It’s baking powder.”
“Baking Soda… I remember because of my name.” Soda says, rolling his eyes.
“Soda.. आप are the handsome one in this friendship… And I am the sexy, smart one. I swear to आप it’s baking powder.”
“Darry’s made चॉकलेट cake millions of times, I’m positive it’s baking soda.”
“Powder.”
“Soda.”
“Give me a good reason why it’s baking soda.” Steve rolls his eyes.
“Well… Ummm.”
“Baking soda is a pure sodium bicarbonate. When baking soda is combined with moisture and an acidic ingredient, the resulting chemical reaction produces bubbles of carbon dioxide that expand under ओवन temperatures, causing baked goods to rise, where baking powder is a drying agent.” Ross says suddenly from the doorway.
Steve and Soda just look at him for a second, shocked.
Then Soda turns to Steve. “Yeah, what he said.”
Steve just looks back and forth between them. “Well, I feel ten times less intelligent.”
“I’m sure.” Soda says.
“It’s baking powder.”

The cars zoomed by.
“This makes me so nervous.” आप say.
“Why?” Soda asks, smiling.
“What if the cars blow up, and we die? या what if they crash? Or-“
“Hey it’s going to be fine,” He interrupts you. “Have some popcorn.”
“But what if I’m eating पॉपकॉर्न and the cars blow up and we die?”
“Then I’ll blow up and die eating पॉपकॉर्न with the girl I love.”
And he kisses आप on the lips.

Soda’s Perspective
“Daddy, do I look ok?” Grace asks. I put down my newspaper to look at my 15 साल old daughter. Wow.
“You look beautiful, sweetheart.” It pained me to see her going on her first date. But I was smiling.
“I’ll be good, Daddy, I promise.”
I grin. Exactly what her mother कहा to her dad on our first date.
“I know.” I manage to say. “You’re a good kid.”
“Not like Faith,” Grace grins. Oh my Faith. Nine years old and already had a “boyfriend”. She was completely hilarious.
“Not like Faith.” I smile.
I get up off the सोफ़ा, सोफे to give her a hug.
“I प्यार आप Daddy.”
“Love आप too, sweetheart.”
“You’re still going to be the first boy I fell in प्यार with.”

The yells from the lot were louder than ever.
आप knew your boyfriend was there, and all his friends.
आप hated it when they fought.
Those stupid fights.
आप went over to lot, to make sure things weren’t getting out of hand. If they were, you’d definately call the police.
It would risk them getting arrested, but आप didn’t want any of them hurt; या dead.
आप saw bodies going at each other, caked in mud and blood.
आप start to walk towards the fight (like an idiot) and are met with a पंच to the face.
आप fall into the mud, shocked द्वारा the blow.
“Hey! That’s my girlfriend!” Soda yells as he pushes the Soc over, and starts beating him repeatedly.
आप feel a hand on your shoulder as आप get up. आप grab the hand and flip him over.
“Hey,” आप thought. “This is fun.”
आप understood why they liked these so much.
