VAN DAMME

[JODI look away quickly, before Van Damme, nervously glance up and down the sidewalk]

VAN DAMME
(quietly)

Damn!

CAROL

Is it because she annoy you?


VAN DAMME

Yes, Carol...Let us walk faster, honey....We are running late

This is a public sidewalk, not a church

MAVERICK pedestrian, VONN, batted away the sidewalk preacher's pronouncements, "Tell Jesus to F*** OFF! Passers-by stopped to see what the all the uproar was about.. Stunned onlookers on the benches outside the sidewalk's Pure Raw Foods place, held their breaths. Some sniggered. Fernandez, aka, the sidewalk playboy, was crafting raw desserts; smoothies with coconut oil, raw cocoa powder, and cucumber, but was too disorientated to toss the ingredients properly.


THE OPEN (unfazed, defiant)

JESUS said " I am the way the truth and the life....


VONN
(repeatedly)

Tell Jesus to F*** OFF!....



THE OPEN

....NO-ONE cometh to the FATHER but by me...



VONN

This is a public sidewalk, not a church.....Tell Jesus to F*** OFF!



THE OPEN

You can tell HIM yourself when you see HIM....if you EVER see his face..


VONN

Don't talk too much. PLEASE!


THE OPEN

Everyone MUST be born again. Accept Christ as your personal saviour. TODAY! It's time to follow the Lord's footsteps.


VONN

Bla Bla Bla....Shut up! This is  PUBLIC sidewalk, not a church


Ratajkowski

(to Vonn)

This is a public sidewalk, the Man of God is free to do what he likes. If you don't want to listen, DON'T listen


VONN

I don't want to listen to him


Ratajkowski

Then go and sit on another sidewalk bench. Walk on, and leave the Man of God alone.



THE OPEN

Amen. Only his blood can save us. We have all sinned.....


VONN

ENOUGH! My God! Shut up!


THE OPEN

Come and shut me up! You cannot see the Kingdom of God unless you repent...


VONN
(sang mockingly)

HALLELUJAH


Ratajkowski
(shook head in scorn)

Are you taking the Man of God's sermon for a JOKE?


THE OPEN

Singing hallelujah not gonna save you. Unless you repent... you are gonna end up in the wrong place - HELL!


VONN

GO TO HELL!



FAUXPAS

Let him speak his religion..You must learn to be tolerant of others' religions. This is a free sidewalk. Otherwise, JOG ON!


Ratajkowski

Amen!


Pasapalabra

This is a free sidewalk. Pedestrians have a right to RELAX on the benches, enjoy the sun - without this FLIPPING annoyance. This is not the time or place for sermons. Find a church or something...


THE OPEN
(faced Pasapalabra sternly)

NO-ONE cometh to the FATHER but by me....

VONN

....Shut up!


The OPEN

I don't need this from you ANYMORE

ZARA
What raw ingredients are you experimenting with today, Andy?


ANDY

using ONLY fresh, raw ingredients

AT THE sidewalk's Pure Raw Foods place, a suited and booted Wimbledon, aka the sidewalk playboy crafts sumptuous desserts using ONLY fresh, raw ingredients. The sidewalk fashionistas growing appetite for his creations, keeps him very busy.

[WATCHES AS PEDESTRIAN, KWOK TRIPS OVER HIS DOG, Kat Von, FALLS ON HIS FACE]


MILEY

　
Craft me a special salad....with broccoli and fruits...any fruit.


Wimbledon

I can craft you a special salad, but not with vegetables and fruits combined


MILEY

Why not?

Wimbledon

I NEVER mix the two in salads


MILEY

Okay. You know best



[ Marian and Mr Lucarelli walk pass a sidewalk bench - TOPLESS. Wimbledon nods at them in approval]



WIMBLEDON

Thanks. I can combine tomatoes with broccoli


MILEY

Tomatoes makes me develop skin rashes. I love pretty much all fruits and vegetables but not tomatoes.

　


No problem. I have cauliflower

　

MILEY

Great.! I love it , I love it , I love it . Can't live without it...


KARIMA

.....Calm down...



MILEY

....I wish my children would adopt my style, and not their father's. He does'nt like vegetables at all. He will eat vegetables but only from a can. And like you said 'fresh fruits and Vegetables are superior.'

　

WIMBLEDON

That's right. But it's still better to eat fruits and vegetables from a can, than not eating any at all..Some vegetables and fruits are not available fresh, so it's fine to have the frozen or canned ones.

　

KARIMA

Fruits and vegetables in cans? What the HELL! I would'nt eat that...I wish my children would adopt my style

　

MILEY

Don't be rude!

　

KARIMA

SHUT UP! You're too sensitive

................................................

[Jaclyn urinates on the sidewalk]


WIMBLEDON
(in disgust)

Crazy man!


Tsarnaev

I can't afford fresh vegetables


GOMEZ

Well, you can plant your vegetables


Tsarnaev

I knew you would say that. For your information, I would live to plant my own vegetables, but I don't have the time and place


WIMBLEDON

Well, shop around for discounted fruits and vegetables. Most times, they are taste just as good, and have the same nutritional value, as premium ones

　
Tsarnaev

GOMEZ, I hope someday, you'll be forced to eat fruits and vegetables from cans.

　

GOMEZ

I would'nt mind...Like the sidewalk playboy said, 'it's better to eat them from a can, than not eating any at all.

sMOOTHIE TIME

Nothing like a kick-ass banana smoothie from the sidewalk's Nature base Boutique. It causes cat-like flatulence in certain factions of the stylish sidewalk diaspora but no one gives a heck. Existing customers still crave it and new ones are willing to try it. Besides, Palme d'Or, aka the sidewalk playboy, finds it easy and convenient to make. No need to stress about his statement suit and tie getting dirty or his impeccably edgy look, getting messed up in the process.


[TASSIE chases missing cat on the sidewalk, Nick parks her car on the sidewalk]


Passer-by, CARRIE
(grunts)

Where does she expects pedestrians to walk now?....Anyway, I heard that you are the artisan of the greatest raw foods dinner...What's your special today?


Palme d'Or

I think Nick is only concerned about other motorists hitting her new car. It's quite safe on the sidewalk...We do DESSERTS, not dinner. Today, we have a wicked smoothie. It's a complete meal, so it has a good amount of protein and enough carbohydrates....We NEED protein.



CARRIE

.....sounds wonderful and healthy. Bring me one. Wait. What are the ingredients?


[TASSIE slips and scrapes knees]


Palme d'Or

Ripe mangoes, strawberries, ripe bananas, raw honey, rolled oats, flax seeds, raspberries, peanut butter, blackberries, skim milk, blueberries,.....great for lunch. Great way to start your afternoon. I used apples as well, and some crunchy raw goji berries.


CARRIE

Any dairy?

Palme d'Or

Not today, sorry. Actually, there are no skim milk. That was a mistake....I blended the raw ingredients in raw rasberry sauce, almond milk and raw honey.


CARRIE

You have some pretty good ideas. Almond milk is a great substitute for dairy milk. No wonder it looks so creamy.


JOANNE PEH

SIdewalk playboy, I notice you NEVER mention how much of each ingredient you used in your raw foods concoctions?

Palme d'Or

Crafting raw foods dishes is not an exact science, so I never meausure the ingreidents. I just use amounts that I fancy, amounts that are convenient etc...

Joanne Peh
(laughs)

Sound like a whole lot of EXPERIMENTATIONS to me.


Palme d'Or
That's exactly what they are.


Joanne Peh

That sounds amazing. No better way to share desserts on the sidewalk

[BILL clears throat loudly.]
..............................

Palme d'Or

You'll love it. It tastes great. has no nasty ingredients. It'll fill you with boundless energy. It may make you fart alot though.


ADRIAN

That make me really HUNGRY..I LIKE it. I wish I could like this twice..If goodness makes me fart, so be it.


[LAUGHTER]


BILL

No thank you. I'll NEVER have bird food for lunch. (walking away) The sidewalk barbeque smells delicious. I bet it's cheaper too.


ADRIAN

That make me really ANGRY, Bill.


BILL

Why though? Did the sidewalk playboy hire you as spokesperson for Nature Base Boutique?

a kick-ass celery salad

MAY is national salads month, but at the sidewalk's NATURE BASE BOUTIQUE, every week is RAW SALADS o'clock. Raw foods rocks! David, aka, the sidewalk playboy, suited and booted, of course,
is crafting a kick-ass celery salad for the sidewalk's fashion pack. It wont be ready until an hour or so, yet, it's palatable aroma is already pulling in chic passers-by. Their crave is so palpable, it's causing their mouths to water.

Normally, David uses lots of  fresh vegetables, fruits, seeds, nuts and herbs in all  his quick and easy raw foods lunches. Today is no exception.

INGREDIENTS(inexpensive and organic)  for today's kick-ass Celery Salad: celery, baby carrots, avocado, green onions, crushed peanuts, fresh parsley, cherry tomatoes, sliced ginger, fresh minced ginger,cabbage, red pepper, and zucchini

DRESSING:
oriental salad sauce and cold pressed walnut oil



                                                      LUNCH TIME

RAFA
Celery is my favourite type of salad

DAVID

Really!

RAFA
I REFUSED to date a girl because she didn't like it....celery salads

.................................................................
BRITNEY
I thought you were a Wardrobe Stylist. You cook also?

DAVID
I AM  a wardrobe stylist, but I'm NOT a cook. I am a RAW MEALS ARTISAN. I craft salads and smoothies, using raw ingredients ONLY..

BRITNEY
I don't care much for cooked ingredients in my salads at all. You are doing a kick ass job with your raw foods venture

DAVID

PASSION, not venture. Thanks. Can't go wrong with raw foods

.............................................................
SUN HO

David, does Nature Base Boutique, deliver to customers who work on the sidewalk?

DAVID

I'm afraid not. Maybe in the future.



CHAN

DAMN IT!
...............................................................

DIESEL

May I have 300 grams of mixed nuts, 150 grams of dried fruits and 7 bottles of water please


Muhlach

SEVEN bottes of water?


DIESEL

I drink LOTS of water. It's almost the first thing I do before I go walk the sidewalk.


DAVID

Congrats. You can't go wrong with LOTS of water.

................................................................................

SELENA

People who eat a whole lot of vegetabes and fruits, can't build muscles. You need protein in your diet


DAVID

WHAT! For your information, a WHOLE lot of proteins can be found in beans, vegetables, nuts, seeds..Why are you so vegetable and fruit averse? Bear in mind, in comparison, you are unlikely to find toxins in raw fruits and vegetables...A nature based lifestyle is the way FORWARD


UPTON

Never mind the detractors, sidewalk playboy. If you are being attacked it simply means that you are doing the right thing. You are succeeding, not them...I have eat raw foods regularly and have no plans on stopping.


SHARUKH

No wonder your sidewalk pictures are so encouraging to look at. Not to mention your energy levels - they are INSANE


UPTON

Thanks. I can't ever see mysef living any other way. This nature-based lifestyle ROCKS!

....................................................

LE Spice Boy

I LOVE raw foods. Thanks for making this sweet raw salad. I'llbe back. I woudn't want to miss out on your daily raw treats


DAVID

Sorrry, you will have to miss out on the days when I attend both fashion and fashionable events. These events are VERY important to my sidewalk life also. Later, I'll be at the Royal Air Force museum's 70th anniversary of the Dambusters raid, dressed up in wartime outfit, of course. Just checking out bombs. other war artefacts, and, last but not the pilots' bad-ass uniforms.......


Edyta

[PEDESTRIAN REMONSTRATES WITH MOTORIST WHO BREAKS SHARPLY AT TRAFFIC LIGHT,(Chris feels entertained)]

Dandelion season is here. In a few weeks, they will disappear until next year. The leaves are great for salads. Dandelion greens are good for your health and well-being.  They cleanse the liver, blood and kidneys. They are packed with minerals and vitamins, just what our bodies need.

[A GROUP OF RANDOM MEN ARE DOING PUSH UPS, BENDING AND SQUATTING ON THE SIDEWALK]


The sidewalk diaspora will get the OPPORTUNITY to taste raw dandelion salads today. Donning an impeccably stylish outfit, Chris is crafting a very tasty dandelion leaves salad . Yummy. He made sure to pick the leaves on the sidewalk, while they were young; before they start to flower.  The young leaves are a lot, LESS bitter than their old counterparts. Exclude the stems; they're can be bitter.

[SLEET PELTS THE SIDEWALK. THE SOUND AND SIGHT ARE BOTH RELAXING]



The sidewalk playboy, Chris, mixes Dandelion leaves, dandelion flowers(it's adviseable to use flowers sparingly) sweet red pepper, cucumbers, pecans, rose hips,(lots of vitamin C)sunflower seeds, hemp seeds, collard greens, tomatoes, beets, fresh parsley, spinach, mustard, turnip greens, white onions, leeks and spinach (packed with iron)

Chris properly RINSED, all the above ingredients, to get rid of dirt and, er, ubiquitous creatures. TOADS, anyone?


For the dressing, Chris mixes, extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, raw honey, black pepper, rock salts. Then he pours mixture over the large bowl of mixed vegetables and seeds. Places bowl in fridge to marinate for a few hours.



(LATER - First passers-by have their say)



MARGARET

people actually eat RAW dandelion leaves? Yuck. It's too bitter for me....Disgusting!

DAVID

they are supposed to be very good for your liver. This salad is quite delicious, ACTUALLY.

CHRIS
They ARE good for your liver...It's not bitter, because I picked the blooms BEFORE they bloomed.

MARGARET
So what part of the dandelion plant do you use, Chris


Just the leaves

DAVID
Okay then. Not bad. Not bad at all. the leaves tastes good in desserts.

CHRIS
Oh, I used a handful dandelion flowers also

MARGARET
The FLOWERS? Yuck! You make some strange salads, Chris...That must be bitter as hell. I've eaten them....cooked. Raw dandelion leaves, and especially, the flowers, are bitter. I don't think I'd enjoy the RAW TASTES


[SPRINKLED SIDEWALK RELEASE AN AMAZING AROMA]

CHRIS
It's not bitter AT ALL. The other ingredients give the salad a beautiful flavor...Dandelion greens are low in calories and packed with fibre. Just saying


I don't care


CHRIS

If you try this raw dandelion salad, I guarantee, it will become your ultimate weakness.

Any pastries on the menu?

ABRAHAM
Sorry. Not healthy enough. We have YUMMY kale chips though.

How dare you replace the lovely pastries with BORING, tasteless, raw foods.

Abraham
HOW DARE YOU!....
Life is hard...get over it. There is no heat in this kitchen.

APRIL
Whatever!

Abraham
If you can't stand the lack of heat in this kitchen, GET OUT!

APRIL
I have your birthday present, so you better speak to me BETTER.

Abraham
What is it?

APRIL
(burst into laughter)

A bottle of FERMENTED cod liver oil, of course.
......................................................................
Needless to say, Abraham is using only real, fresh, raw foods for the kale smoothie - ripe bananas, almond milk, soy milk, Apple, peanut butter, cranberries, cinnamon, carrot, mango, cacao, goji berries, avocado,  strawberry, LOTS of kale, lemon, orange and pineapple juices, oh, and  tangerine mineral water.

Pink salmon salad

PASSERS-BY on the sidewak, relish their new guilty-pleasure - raw salads, prepared daily by Ashton, aka, the sidewalk playboy. Some of them have a raw; fruit or vegetable, salad, EVERY DAY. It's their new honey. No other dietary source of sweetness will do. Eat your heart out.

(Yvette walk briskly on sidewalk, Brad emerges from a sidewalk stall and steps in front of her. Gross!)

As we speak, Ashton, the dapper sidewalk playboy, is making a kick-ass - to-die-for, Raw Salmon salad. He expects passers-by who have first servings, to be tempted into to having second servings.

(altercation breaks out between two groups of pedestrians. Group B's power walk is halted when they find it impossible to pass Group A, ambling in front, reading newspaper, texting, swaying from side to side on the sidewalk. extra flavor! yummy treat!)

In a large bowl, Ashton mixes together the following fresh,  RAW foods:

crushed red pepper, pounded peanuts, kale, mint, Kelp noodles, finely-chopped spring onions aka scallions, asparagus, shredded zucchini, peeled and grated carrots, chopped chilli, avocado, pine nuts, tomatoes, raw onion, crushed garlic, cumin seeds, baby spinach, onion powder, and of course, heaps of raw crumbled raw pink salmon.

(Pedestrian walk away quickly after his dog finished sh*tting on the sidewalk. TASTELESS! Another pedestrian shout Are you gonna pick that up? then offered the culprit  a plastic bag to put the MESS in. Serve him....right)

Over that mixture, the amused sidewalk playboy drizzles a mixture of raw honey, Himalayan rock salt olive oil and lemon juice and lime juice and rice vinegar. Stir frantically. Then place the bowl in the refrigerator to marinate for TWO HOURS


(LATER - sidewalk's lunch time)


Happiness is written all over the faces of those devouring it now. Even a sidewalk worker who earlier admitted his disdain for raw baby spinach. Yuck!

　
RYAN
This salad is to-die-for, Ashton. I’ll have one for lunch every day at work.

ASHTON

Soon, you’ll forget that tiresome pastry desserts were your ultimate guilty pleasures

(jokingly) Were they?

　

JENNIFER
Best raw salad ever. Yummy. I could eat it every day.

You SHOUld eat it every day!

a bad-ass pineapple fruit salad

AT the Sidewalk Cafe, Sony, the sidewalk playboy, fashionista  and consummate salad-maker is rustling up a bad-ass, sorry, an amazing fruit salad for the sidewalk diaspora's dessert, sorry, I meant lunch. Tomatoes are fruits, but he sensibly excludes them on this occasion. Salad clever, indeed. No cucumber neither. Anyone who incorporates tomatoes in fruit salads might as well add dill and celery seeds. GROSS!

The ingredients Sony is using are grapes, diced pineapple, bananas, paw paw and oranges. All fruits are fresh, adequately riped, washed and not soft. To make the dressings, he whiskes lime juice and orange juice together. Yoghurt will be available to passers-by who fancy it.

 

The different textures and colours make the salad so beautiful, passers-by might want to keep it, instead of eating it. They gonna ove it so much, they'll be clamouring for it each day.

quickie salads

YOU don't want to be in the same boat as Osbourne; aka the sidewalk playboy; the doyenne of tastefully raw sidewalk salads, It's hours before lunch time, yet hundreds of hungry, newly raw-salad-fanatical passers-by are queuing up for sidewalk salads. What the HELL! Converting the once die-hard pastry lovers to raw food lovers was astonishingly easy. However, keeping up with their new crave is going to be flipping HARD.

 

Rustling up a quick salad, OSBOURNE is laterally experimenting with a nice blend of RAW ingredients - salad greens, alfalfa sprouts, avocado, carrot, ginger, lemons, tofu, apple, red and yellow bell peppers, summer squash, almonds and zucchini.

 

This lot will increase fibre in their diets. He grate the apples and combined them with all the other thinly-sliced vegetables in a large bowl.

 

Osbourne whisks together - raw honey (to counteract the sour lemon juice) lemon juice, and raw mango chutney, sea salts, balsamic vinegar. Then he pours this mixture over the vegetables in the large bowl.

 

He’s supposed to now, place the finished salad in the refrigerator for at least an hour or so. Unfortunately, to avoid a boisterous uproar, he will have to skip this fundamental step this time.

 

OSBOURNE: (to the first person – in the line)

 

Delicious! Wow. This a lovely, healthy salad. You will LOVE it



Dzhokhar: (enthusiastically)

Sounds Amazing

a bad-ss cucumber salad

Raw salads are dramaticaly the new dessert at the Sidewalk Cafe. This is what the sidewalk diaspora needs. Perhaps it was comtemplating the move while feasting on the cafes delectable desserts. The sidewalk playboy, Luis, is here to support them.


Luis, is making a bad ass cucumber salad. Ingredients are - Red onions, lots of cucumber, of course, tomatoes, onions, broccoli, kale, cardamom, cauliflower, rice vinegar, black pepper, toasted sesame oil.

 
Luis might experiment with raw corn another day.
 

 
LUIS:  (to passer-by, Kendra)

If you are concerned about your intake of sugar, salt and vinegar, then this salad is not for you. The rice vinegar constitutes sugar, salt and vinegar. Sorry.

　

KENDRA

IS IT disgusting?

 

LUIS: Not at all. It’s so yummy and it was so easy to prepare. Best salad you've ever tasted! It’s a nod to Japanese salads. Japanese salads are about simplicity, finesse and fine taste.

 
Reese: It's Delicious

Gwyneth Paltrow inspired salad

Yesterday, quite a few pedestrians admitted that vegetables would never touch their lips; raw or cooked. Sidewalk playboy, Boston was aghast. No wonder some of them looked so constipated. They turned their lips away from proper fibres. After assuring them that raw salads would let them defecate every day, instead of once every week, some were more receptive to the Sidewalk Cafe's new salad menus.

Today's raw salad treat is Gwyneth Paltrow inspired. Oh yes, raw vegan cheese, onions , fresh figs, celery, butternut squash, parsnips, kale, and red bell pepper.

By the way, apart from blending it into smoothies, kale tastes best when its eaten raw. Not many people can stand the taste of onion, but it's great for your heart. Sometime, we have to learn to sacrifice taste for health.

Don't forget the dressing. Like the vegetables, it has high carbs content. But walkers need lots of energy to get by. But if you dislike dressing, you can always use lemon juice.

Sounds lovely... Enjoy

bomb-ass, diabetic-harmonious raw salad

Electricity on the sidewalk has been switched off while crucial re-surfacing takes place. Check out the news on CNN. Consequently, the sidewalk Sidewalk Cafe will be - OPEN, still. Perhaps, the sidewalk diaspora will suffer contractions when it learn of the cafe's totally new lunch menus. Raw salads. What the hell!

That's right. No FLIPPING desserts or puddings in the near future. All that heat was driving the sidewalk playboy, Andy, MAD. The time is ripe for change; a new diet. Time to start eating onions as if they are apples; apples as if they are pastries. It should be super easy to convert the sidewalk's pastry lovers.

Psy whistles showily as he sweeps the sidewalk. No doubt, CLEAN eating is the way forward; totally raw. Time to change the sidewalk's palete from pastries to real food - OMG - totally raw!
Besides, using just human energy to create raw salads, is more cost effective than baking with electricity. Ovens and stoves have been replaced by new kitchen appliances; cutting boards, Mandolin, sharp knives, spoons and bowls.
　

Right now, the sidewalk playboyy, Andy, is preparing today's bomb-ass, diabetic-harmonious special. Here are the key ingredients; (inexpensive organic) - Lettuce, tomatoes, spinach, tomatoes, broccoli, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, carrots, peppers and onions, garlic, cucumber, orange-colored bell pepper, summer squash and asparagus.


Andy slices vegetabeles very thinly with mandolin. In a large bowl, he mixes olive oil and lemon juice into a creamy consistency. Then he sprinkles liquid with black pepper, and paprika. No FLIPPING salt. Finally, he pour the dressing over the salad. Let it chill until serving time in an hour.


The Sidewalk Cafe smells - vegetable-like but the resulting taste is crunchy, savory, colorful and awesome. Yummy! From now on, the sidewalk diaspora will be begging the sidewalk playboy for more... RAW SALADS.

sidewalk puddings and desserts

No fashion event on today, so sidewalk playboy, George, aka Two Hit Wonder, is back on the sidewalk, making up another fashion song in his head, watching some pedestrians running and doing push-ups,  WHILE  baking delectable puddings and desserts for the sidewalk diaspora. Treats for today - butternut squash pudding and Fruit cocktail cake dessert. YUMMY!

If you have never had butternut squash pudding, you should try it. It's not only interesting-sounding, it also taste and smells good. Your sense of taste and smell will be in savory heaven.

Fruit cocktail cake dessert is on point. It has no icing but that doesn't stop passers-by, snared by the delicious aroma, from queuing up long before its even ready. Trust me, it taste much nicer than those in the shops. Much better than mixed fruits.

Chocolate cake is less basic and more challenging, but George will be making it tomorrow. Cheese cake, Chocolate sponge cake with melted glaze chocolate on top;recipes coming up later this week.

Here is the chorus for the new fashion song he has started writing:

KNAPSACK


I have a knack for carrying alot
Sidewalk playboy, how you do that?
You'll never flap
With a knapsack
A kick-ass bag that I carry on my back
Everyone on the sidewalk
Has one of that

sidewalk chat

LIM speaks entertainingly loudly on her phone, from one of the sidewalk benches.


LIM

I'm sorry to hear Cristiano did that to you, Julianne. He's a DIRTY player. He thinks you are EASY to get...He kissed me, when he had a girlfriend...I pu...shed him away....

He cheated on his girlfriend when he was in Malaga. He was like "Oh, I had a free pass" (funny mimicking of Cristiano)

He's just too CONFIDENT....He's PATHETIC!....Get this straight. I DID NOT KISS HIM. He kissed me. And I PHYSICALLY pushed him aside

By making a move on you like that, he's sacrificing your friendship with him. He's doing it, because he DOESN'T care

Okay, I'll call him now. Bye

LIM CALLS Cristiano


LIM
(giggling)

You know why I'm calling!

She was OFFENDED. You made her feel like she's easy.

(giggling)
Well, I was calling to tell you that what you did to her was RUDE...but not anymore. All of that change in the last few minutes I started talking to you...

...(giggles) I am actually hanging out on the sidewalk bench, among a bunch of losers, so NO IN DEPTH CONVERSATION, please

LIM GIGGLES EVEN MORE INTENSELY WHILE SAYING GOODBYE, THEN MADE LOTS OF KISSING SOUNDS WITH HER MOUTH
