Play Hate

Anita was talking about the desserts she would have at her party; "Anything but chocolate..." Miri said. My mouth dropped. Miri gave me a cutting glance. I hid my reaction. Miri loved chocolate as much as I did. Her remark to Anita needed subtitles. In a few minutes, I got them. "Anita hates me, why I have no idea, but..." I smiled, for I more than understood. At the function all the desserts would be chocolate, from the ice cream to the cake to the cookies. When Anita saw Miri loading her plate she pushed over..."I thought you didn't like chocolate!" she shouted, angrily. Flat as a pancake, looking into Anita's eyes, Miri replied; "I changed my mind," and shoved a fat chunk of the cake in her mouth. Anita glared as if about to scream. But could she admit that she chocolated the event to 'fix' Miri?
