—Don't blackmail me, Emily.

—I'm negotiating!

I dig my nails into the can until we both drop it rolling our eyes, when it falls into its seat we both fight to reach it, but it goes too far behind. We both got frustrated, annoyed and stopped talking for five minutes until I looked at him again, he didn't say anything to me.

I take out the sparkling mineral water with a touch of lemon and the straws that were at the bottom, I open the can and put in both straws; I offer it to you.

-Want?

—Not that you didn't like it, liar.

-I am inviting you!

I'm about to push her away, but she wraps her hand around the can, covering my fingers, and pops the straw into her mouth. I do the same, the scene seems a little like teenagers who are afraid to hold hands, but it's cute. However, he absorbs more and when I pull away I only let the straw go a little to tell him that he is taking all the contents.

—You're going to drink it all in three sips!

—Well, I'm thirsty, envious.

—Pis tingui sid, invidisi.

-Do not imitate me.

—Not even my arrimidis.

—Emily.

—Migin.

He completely snatches the can away from me, some of the gas causing the liquid to spill out of the corners because I took it away too quickly.

"It's just that you're the envious one, you want to eat all the sweets, you wanted to leave me without orange soda, which in fact you managed to do," he pointed out, "and on top of that you take away the only water with citrus touches." That doesn't even taste like a hint of lemon.

—Don't attack me, give me a kiss.

—No, give me, I'm thirsty.

—I'll move out of the car so I can go around the couch and get the orange one back. —A very tempting challenge, really, drinking sparkling water and two drops of lemon is not the most delicious drink at a drive-in movie theater—. The movie is going to end.

—Let's go halfway, okay, come.

I pull him close to me so I can kiss him, the taste of sugar explodes on our lips when I kiss him deeper, he pushes me away so he can get out of the car and move the seat. I watch the movie for a few minutes, I feel like it's taking a while, but I can't bring myself to watch it.

-You already found her?

"That's what I'm doing," he complains, "I think he got lost."

—You can't miss a soda that fell on your seat, Salvatore.

-I'm looking for.

I cross my arms, I no longer eat sweets because I need something that really takes the sweet taste off my tongue. I wait, a little more, one more minute, thirty more seconds and when I turn to look, it continues poking around, I return to the movie.

—If you don't want to give it to me, you would have just said so, darling.

—The spoiled one is another, envious, he adds.

—Invidisi agrigali.
