The Devil Likes Lemon Cupcakes

The Devil Is A Perverted Jackass

                                   »A mermaid found a swimming lad,

                                              Picked him for her own,

                                         Pressed her body to his body,

                    Laughed; And plunging down forgot in cruel happiness

                                             That even lovers drown.«

                                                William Butler Yeats

I adore Thai food. I adore their soups, I adore their appetizers, I adore their Pad Thai, and above all; I adore Pad See-Ew.

The bowl of mouthwatering soy noodles with salty mushrooms, tofu and crunchy bamboo sprouts was heating up my lap. A single bite of those delicious noodles, drenched in heavenly saltines of soy sauce, made me want to cry.

»Where did you say this cat came from?« Asked Lena while tiptoeing around Layla, who was quietly growling at her.

»I rescued it.« I stuffed my face with another shipment of Thai food.

»Why?« Gaja unwrapped her hamburger. She wasn't a fan of animals, but she could tolerate them. Unlike Lena who was terrified of everything on four legs. Including babies.

I rolled my eyes at her. »Can't you eat the same food as us, for once?«

She shook her head. »You know I can't handle eating slowly and in small bites.« She grinned at the giant hamburger which was dripping with ketchup on one side.

»Why did you have to bring her here again?« Lena's voice shook as she finally got pass my cat.

»She's adjusting.« Mmm, crunchy bamboo sprouts...

»Shouldn't she be adjusting, I don't know – in your house?« Said Gaja.

I shrugged. »She doesn't seem to like anyone but me.«

»No shit.« The grimace on her face told me everything.

My pants vibrated and I took out my old phone.

Pervert: Amuse me. I am bored.

Me: Go amuse yourself.

»So,« Lena took a shiny DVD in her hand. »I've decided on The 100.«

»The What-Now?« Gaja wiped the ketchup off her chin.

»The 100. It's a TV show about a bunch of people in the future, after the Nuclear war, and how they come from space on Earth for the first time in years. Most of them are teenagers.«

»Of course they are, otherwise it wouldn't be MTV material.« Said Gaja in sarcastic tone.

»It's not MTV.«

While Lena and Gaja were bickering my phone vibrated again.

Pervert: No. What are you doing?

Me: Me and my friends are eating.

Pervert: I thought young women prefer to diet. What if you get fat?

Who the hell does he think he is?! Telling me to go on a diet...Jackass.

»Who are you texting with all the time?« The redhead snatched the phone out of my hand.
