Louisa glared at Ice's retreating figure, angry about his audacity but glad that he was leaving.
XXX"Wait! You can't leave yet!" Elvis cried, clumsily stumbling around the table as he dashed towards Ice.
XXX"Actually, it'd be better if he did," Louisa called out. "He doesn't want to be here. No one else wants him to be here. Everybody wins, Elvis!"
XXX"What can I get for you ma'am?" Louisa turned back to the rest of the group when the waiter approached the table. Finally! The pinkette fidgeted impatiently as Shea placed her order. Louisa swore that she saw a faint twitch in the waiter's eye.
XXX"Sure... Anything for the rest of the crew here?" the waiter asked, doing a horrible job of hiding his irritation. Louisa shouted out her order right after Neptune jabbed his finger at his menu. "I'll do your Daily Secret Special! Please."
XXXThe waiter sighed tiredly, as if he's been through this talk many times already. "You'll only get your price cut down if you actually complete the challenge," he stated in monotone. "If you fail, you'll go on the Wall of Shame and the Special alone will probably cost you fifty bucks. You better know what you're getting into, because if you fail, we are not giving you a refund."
XXX"I'm aware!" Louisa state cheerily. "I won't be needing a refund anyway, by the end of this, this'll probably be the cheapest thing I've ordered since the beginning of time!"
XXXIn all honesty, Louisa was starting to feel a little bad for the poor waiter who look like his eye muscles were having multiple seizures one after another. "This challenge isn't easy."
XXX"And you think you'll be telling me, 'I told you so', when this is over? No need to worry, Mister, 'cause when I'm done, you'll be eating your words!"
XXXNow the waiter's eye looked like it was going to pop right out of the socket. Louisa's genuinely cheery tone was probably getting on his nerves more than if she had sounded haughty.
XXX"All right then," the waiter's voice sounded strained as Louisa beamed brightly. "Anybody else wanna order?"
