Coffee at the park

This is about 2 friends that have completely differently personalities and they have a chat at the park.

Why does everyone have such a different perspective on everything? Well the answer is that many people were raised differently and that is why many have different perspectives. There are 2 women that graduated college one is a 29 year old Amanda who graduated college when she was 22 and she is currently a nurse at a children’s reasearch hospital. The other woman was a 21 year old named Maria who is currently a half time clerk at Safeway while she is finishing college. These 2 women met at the park for coffee at starbucks. Amanda is considered the rude one while Maria is considered the nervous scaredy cat. These 2 met up because they knew each other by a friend. Many don’t know why they became friends because of their different perspectives. But many say that their differences is what makes them really good friends. These 2 are currently at Hazel Day park in Sacramento meeting up to have a conversation and drink some coffee.

Maria: So how was your day?

Amanda: Good, I guess.. How about you...Maria

Maria: Pretty good, I just finished my shift at Safeway and in a hour I’m about to go back to my college

Amanda: Why are you biting your nails?!? That’s sort of gross… are you nervous?

Maria:....

Amanda: So… What do you want to do later?

Maria: I don’t know if i’m going to be available later

Amanda: Why are you never going out to places? Your life is literally considered boring. At least go out and do something that is actually fun.

Maria: First of all I ACTUALLY go bowling every month. Plus you don’t really know a lot about my life so don’t be saying crap that you don’t even know about.

Amanda: Whoa! Calm down Maria… Your bar is going high!

Maria: *laughs*

Amanda: Oh well let me finish my coffee before it gets cold because it’s pretty cold here

Amanda: *Puts sweater on*

Maria: It’s not even cold here… that’s literally the reason why I bought a frappuccino.. Because it’s cold

Amanda: No one cares Maria

Maria: Oh my gosh *laughs*

Amanda: So wanna meet up next week?

Maria: Sorry, I can’t because my brother is coming from Mexico and I want to show him all the cool places in Sacramento

Amanda: Nah it’s alright although you're probably going to show your brother some boring old historical sites

Maria: You probably shouldn’t even say historical sites are boring because a couple of months ago you were telling me on how obsessed you were with history

Amanda: I know that but I don’t like a lot of historical sites in Sacramento

Maria: Ok…

Amanda: *rolls eyes*

Maria: *Puts blue nike sweater on*

Amanda: I thought you said it wasn’t cold

Maria: Drinking a cold frappuccino is gonna make me cold either way

Amanda: Whatever….

Maria: Wanna go bowling on friday because I’m free to go bowling on friday night plus, I have a discount

Amanda: Sure.. at exactly what time cause I have a meeting at 3:00p.m

Maria: At 6:30

Amanda: Ok just send me the address on friday

Maria: So wanna go to the mall in about an hour

Amanda: Weren’t you gonna go to your college?

Maria: At 6:30 and right now it’s 12:36

Amanda: Ok

Maria: By the way… did you nail your interview

Amanda: Yeah now I have a promotion on my job!

Maria: Wow congrats!

Amanda: Thanks… I guess but I could have done better though..

Maria: Just appreciate the fact that you got a promotion. Because you can’t ask for better once you did good on it.

Amanda: Thanks?

Maria: Ok no problem…*chuckles*

Amanda: *laughs*

Maria: Oh yeah!... By the way I forgot to tell you that my sister’s wedding is next month on the 24th.

Amanda: Ok thanks!

Maria: I’ll send you the invitation next  week once they are finished

Amanda: Ok

Maria:* drinks the rest of the frappucino*

Amanda: It’s kind of getting hot

Maria: I know

Amanda: * uses paper as a fan*

Maria: When are you going to return to your normal days at the hospital?

Amanda: In 2 weeks but first, I need to get some training on monday’s and thursdays before I return and it’s starting next week.

Maria:Ooh no wonder you’ve been at many places lately

Amanda: *rolls eyes* The thing is that training get REALLY boring and I just want to sleep all day long

Maria: You should take some naps. That’s what I do and it helps A LOT when I’m feeling tired

Amanda: I should consider that

Maria: But taking shorts naps can make you feel drowsy so don’t be those types of people who take like 30 minute naps

Amanda: Boy! Do you think I would take a 30 minute nap? If it takes me like 30 minutes to get into sleeping mode.

Maria: *chuckles*

Amanda: Oh well…. wanna go to the mall right now?

Maria: Maybe in a little while though

Amanda: Whatever… *laughs*

Maria: what time is it?

Amanda: *checks phone*

Amanda: It’s 12: 58

Maria: Ok thanks

Amanda: No problem… by the way… don’t you have your own phone?

Maria: Yes… but it’s charging with my portable charger because it’s at 10%

Amanda: Oh.. where do you buy portable chargers? I never find them at stores.

Maria: You can buy them online.

Amanda: How much?

Maria: They normally range from 5 to 15 dollars

Amanda: Not bad for a charger with no outlet needed

Maria: I know but you need to charge the portable charger then it charges your phone outlet free

Amanda: Well I know that! But I mean when you charge your phone out in public areas

Maria: *rolls eyes* Oh my goodness Amanda! *laughs*

Amanda: Do you think I wouldn’t know how a portable charger works?

Maria: Yes

Amanda: *rolls eyes*

Maria: You have serious anger issues

Amanda: I know! It runs in my family even though we are nice most of the time

Maria: *sarcastically* Wow! I didn’t even know that! *laughs*

Amanda: Oh my god Maria *laughs*

Maria: Ok want to start preparing to go to  the mall?

Amanda: Yeah let me start finishing my bread… because who wouldn’t forget their bread when they go out and drink their coffee?

Maria:  Definitely me because I don’t do bread… I do donuts.

Amanda: *opens eyes wide* Oh my god I love donuts they are amazing. I love the sugar coated donuts!

Maria: Those are soo good!

Amanda: * finishes bread*

Maria: Ok let’s pack up our bags and let’s go

Amanda: *Puts items in her Michael Kors hand bag*

Maria: I left my bag at the car so i’m ready

Amanda: let’s go to your car

In case you didn’t know Maria and Amanda came at the park by hopping in Maria’s Nissan Armada instead of bringing 2 cars to the park.

*Maria and Amanda start walking to Maria’s car*

Amanda: Today was OK…. not too bad instead of your lame visits to the museum

Maria: * bites nails* Hey be quiet*

Amanda: You need to quit with that habit… you can get infections…. At the hospital, we had visits in which the patient had a really bad infections  in their mouths in cause to the nail biting.

Maria: I can quit the habit

Amanda: Sure… let’s just hope none of the nail biting occurs at the mall because you’re always nervous.

In conclusion, Amanda and Maria had a fun time at the arden fair mall in which they met old college friends and they even got some huge deals when they went clothes shopping.

Hello! I think I've said a bunch of this before, but I really like how the story is laid out! It reminds me of something, a script maybe? Also, I like how Amanda brings out the more outgoing side of Maria. The dialogue shows a lot about the character, but if it's possible to add some more detail other than what they say, I think that would help. Just a suggestion though. Lastly, I like the idea of perspectives and showing how they're different. Awesome work! ^^
