Party Favors
Quinn was truly desperate.
揙h C抦on Daria. I抣l do something for you later. I promise.?/p>
Daria sat at the table with her arms crossed and stared at her sister.
揂nd what抯 my motivation??/p>
揚(yáng)lease Daria. Don抰 make me beg any more. I抦 in trouble. The Halloween Carnival is tonight and the fashion club needs three-dozen caramel apples for our booth. Sandi, Stacy, and Tiffany were supposed to help but they never showed up. Now I抦 desperate.?/p>
Uncrossing her arms and getting up, Daria asked, 揂nd when is the subject of compensation going to come up??/p>
Reaching into her pocket Quinn pulled out a five-dollar bill.
揌ere. I swear this is all I have. Now will you help??/p>
Pocketing the bill, Daria said, 揙kay. Let抯 get started.?/p>
Quinn pointed to a bag on the counter.
揋reat. There are the supplies. I need to get to the meeting to help finish deciding what we are all going to wear. We need the apples ready in four hours. Thanks. Bye.?/p>
As Quinn ran out of the kitchen, Daria gave her a cross look.
Later that evening, Daria and Jane were walking down the corridors of Lawndale High. As they strolled, Jane spoke, 揑 can抰 believe you wanted to come to this. Mind if I ask why??/p>
Stopping at the corner, Daria pointed at the fashion club booth.
換uinn conned me into making three-dozen caramel apples for her today. There they are.?/p>
Jane looked at Daria with confusion.
揂nd you came here to see how they were selling??/p>
Shaking her head, Daria said, 揘ot exactly. I fell a little short of having enough apples.?/p>
揃y how many??/p>
揊our.?/p>
Quickly Jane counted the rows.
揟here are thirty six apples there.?/p>
Daria smirked.
揝o I had to make a substitution.?/p>
Now Jane was really confused. 揧ou did? With what??/p>
揙ne second and you抣l see.?/p>
As they watched, the three J抯 all showed up. When they found out Quinn was responsible for the apples all three grabbed one. As they bit into them Joey and Jeffy chewed away while Jamie ate but was in obvious agony.
Turning to look at Jane, Daria said, 揙kay we can go. I wanted to see who got the first onion.?/p>
The End
As usual, Daria belongs to MTV. This was written for my own amusement.
