Sweet as Sugar

Mu smiled as he got one of the clasps. "Melly, can you help? Its hard to get them in"

"Huh? Oh, sure!" Melly replied, turning around and helping him with his shirt.

Mu smiled. "Thank you. Its easier to unclasp than it is to reclasp."

"A lot of stuff is like that," replied Melly. "It's easier to undo than redo. That applies to people as well."

"Really? How so?" Mu asked

"It's easier to break people than fix them," Melly replied somewhat flatly. "Anyway, there we go! Now let's get something to eat!"

"Okay!" Mu agreed.

This was a big restaurant, with lots of vines and Italian structure. The place was noisy with customers.

Melly walked up to the front desk. "Two please."

Mu followed close behind.

A waiter soon appeared, and he led Melly and Mu to an empty table near the window. The sunlight was bright in the shady restaurant.

Mu was all smiles. "What does Italian taste like?" he asked Melly

"Well, it depends on what you get," said Melly, looking at the menu. "A lot of bread, a lot of garlic, a lot of cheese, a lot of pasta. It'll fill up you real good."

"What's Pizza?" Mu asked

"It's a big pie made out of bread with lots of cheese on top," Melly explained. "Of course it can have a lot of other toppings too, like pepperoni and peppers and ham and olives and mushrooms, along with a bunch of other stuff."

"That sounds good" Mu chirped

"So do you want to get everything on it?" asked Melly. "Or do you want it plain or with only certain toppings."

"You pick" Mu smiled. "I'm sure I'll like what you like"

"Well I'm getting everything, though plain pizza can be real good too," said Melly. "Tell you what, we'll get it half-and-half. Half plain and half everything."

"Okay" Mu smiled.

Their waiter came by and Melly gave him their order.

"What would you like to drink?" the server asked, jotting notes down.

"I'll have apple juice," answered Melly.

"Mmm, Just water please" Mu smiled.

"Alright," replied the waiter, writing the drinks down before leaving.

"It'll probably be awhile before we get our food," said Melly. "It looks busy today."

Mu grinned. "That's okay, I can wait"

"Well good, we're not going to have much choice," Melly replied, sticking his tongue out at him. The waiter came by with their drinks. "Thanks."

"Thank you~" Mu smiled
