Dudes and their food. Adi could not blame Romulus one bit as even he was piling his plate high.
*Did his friends call him Roms? He wouldn't know not having being put in that situation. The situation of having many friends. There used to be a kid that lived down the street that called him Roo. He hated that nickname.*
"Umm yeah, sure they do."
*The look of total surprise brought Romulus back to reality. Normal kids his age wouldn't know things like that. Not unless it was part of your name like Adi's was. Rom looked down at his food and brushed the comment away. His brain was like a sponge. His brain seemed to frighten people away. He needed to work on being more... normal.*
"I guess I got lucky. I remember random stuff like that sometimes."
