Bubble Tea and Movie Nights 👪
SUMMARY: Every Saturday night, Lloyd and Nya go out to see a movie, and then get bubble tea afterwards. PLATONIC LLOYA
"Okay, our options are...Oranges Are Blue, Dracula The Dog, The Kid Who Couldn't Catch, The Kid Who Couldn't Throw, which is the sequel to The Kid Who Couldn't Catch, or a documentary about the Great Devourer and how it killed a girl's parents." Lloyd called out, reading each poster.
Nya beckoned him over, "How do you feel about horror?"
"Hell naw!"
"Hell yes!"
"We'll flip a coin!"
"Deal!" She brought out a coin from her pocket and flipped it in the air, neatly catching it on the back of her palm. "Heads or Tails?"
Lloyd thought for a second, "Tails."
Smirking, Nya shook her head, showing him the coin, and he groaned. The raven booked two backseat tickets for 'Veronica' and they went to fetch some popcorn.
Since they were ninjas, they had to watch their food. Sensei didn't want them slacking off, so they often just bought a small popcorn and shared it between them. "Hi, can we get a small butter popcorn? But, can you layer the butter?"
The cashier looked confused, but nodded, "That'll be $4 please." The duo each handed him 2 dollars, and waited for the popcorn to be made.
"So, why Veronica?"
Nya shrugged, "Apparently it's one of the scariest films made {1}. Kai said it's not that bad."
"Fine, but if I get nightmares, I'm blaming you."
"No, because then I'll make you do my chores."
Lloyd smirked and shook his head, holding up his phone, "Nope. Or the video goes viral." Nya flushed, knowing what video he was on about. It was taken a few months back, when she was high on medication, and sobbing about how animals have better love lives than humans.
The cashier returned with their popcorn, and Nya took it, thanking him and making her way to the screen room whilst Lloyd ogled at the pick 'n' mix.
"Pintsize, you coming or not?" Nya called out.
"I'm older and taller than you!"
Lloyd jumped at every jumpscare, and Nya had to stifle her laughter as they shared the popcorn out, watching the film. Lloyd had clamped his hands over his eyes and was watching the movie through the gaps in his fingers.
"I am never watching a movie with you again!"
"You barely even watched it!"
"Yeah, right!" The movie had ended, and they were heading out to get bubble tea. It was tradition.
"Piggyback?" Lloyd asked.
"Yas! Thank you!" Nya stood back, took a running leap, and landed on Lloyd's back. Wrapping her arms around his neck, he continued walking along the street, "Dude, you're a freaking lightweight!"
Nya swatted the back of his head, "Am not!"
They later arrived at Boba House and entered the small shop, snagging a small seat. Nya stood up, "You want your usual?"
"Hm...let's try something different."
Each grabbing a menu, they skimmed through the different options, "I'll go for Taro milk tea with Boba if...you go for Matcha?"
"What about the Thai milk tea?"
"We'll get that next week." Lloyd promised, as Nya stood up. She went and ordered the drinks, later returning with them, and the two special Boba straws.
{2}"Shut your eyes." she ordered, taking his Matcha tea. She moved it around the table and tapped the lid. With his eyes shut, Lloyd stabbed the straw down, and got it into the Taro milk tea instead. He grinned, "At least I got it in. Your turn!"
Sliding the cup around the table, he tapped it, and Nya (with her eyes closed) punctured the packaging with the straw. Clinking the cups, they took a sip, their eyes widening excitedly, "This is good!"
"I might get this next time we come here!" Nya grinned, taking another sip. They swapped their cups around and took another sip. Nya wrinkled her nose, "Not a fan of the Matcha."
"What? Taro's so good!" Lloyd replied, taking another sip.
They swapped back, and simply caught up, laughing at jokes as they drank their tea. "I still remember when you missed the cup completely and the tea exploded everywhere!" Lloyd laughed, as Nya rolled her eyes, "What about the time when you saw someone drink Boba wrong, so you marched over and gave them a 20-minute lecture on how to drink Boba properly?"
"It was like nails on a chalkboard, Midget! There's only one right way to drink Boba!"
"That's true."
It was almost 10pm when they finally left, making their way home.
{1} - Veronica is said to be the scariest film on Netflix. Many say that only 10% of the watchers can watch it completely. It's based on a true story in Spain, and it's in Spanish, however, I have seen the film, and can confirm that I've seen worse! This movie isn't bad, at all!
{2} - The Boba Game is commonly played, and requires a minimum of two people. One person holds their straw and shuts their eyes, whilst the other moves the cup around the table. Then they will tap the top of the cup, and the person with their eyes closed has to try and stab the cup with the straw. It's hard to explain, but yea. In some cases, it ends up with the cup breaking and the tea and tapioca spilling out and going EVERYWHERE
