Chapter 3: Operation Space Juice
On presentation day, Ethan strutted to the front of the
class wearing a space helmet made of tinfoil. “Ladies and gentlemen, we
present… Operation Space Juice.”
Ray buried his face in his hands. “Please don’t say Space
Juice.”
But Ethan was unstoppable. “Our rocket was designed to
launch using the power of soda and vinegar—”
Ray cut in, “—and exploded because Ethan didn’t understand basic
chemistry.”
Ethan grinned. “It’s called innovation!”
“Yeah,” Ray said, “innovation in property damage.”
The class laughed so hard that even the teacher had to hide
her smile.
Ethan held up a chart. “According to my data—”
Ray snatched it. “Your ‘data’ is a doodle of a stick figure
in a spacesuit labeled ‘me if smart’.”
Ethan gasped. “That was confidential research!”
By the time they finished, the class was in tears of
laughter. The teacher sighed and said, “I’ll give you both a B—for bravery.”
Later, as they walked home, Ethan said, “Bro, admit it. We
killed that presentation.”
Ray smirked. “Yeah, like how your rocket killed my will to
live.”
“Whatever, man,” Ethan said. “We’re legends.”
Ray laughed. “You’re a legend, alright. The legend of the
man who thought vinegar could beat gravity.”
Ethan shrugged. “At least I tried.”
“True,” Ray said. “And we learned an important lesson.”
“Which is?” Ethan asked.
“Never let you near anything that can explode.”
They both cracked up.
Then Ethan grinned mischievously. “Wanna test my new theory
about mentos and cola in the bathtub?”
Ray stopped walking. “Ethan.”
“Yeah?”
“If you touch that bottle, I swear I’ll roast you so hard
your ancestors will feel it.”
Ethan hesitated. “...How hard are we talking?”
Ray leaned close. “I’ll tell everyone that you once texted
your mom’s cooking video to your crush thinking it was a TikTok trend.”
Ethan’s face went pale. “You wouldn’t.”
“I would.”
Ethan dropped the cola bottle. “Fine. No science today.”
Ray smirked. “Good boy.”
But then Ethan suddenly grinned. “Wait… what if we make a
volcano out of toothpaste—”
Ray groaned. “Oh no. Here we go again.”
Five minutes later, they were both covered in mint foam,
Ethan was laughing like a maniac, and Ray was yelling, “WHY DO I STILL HANG OUT
WITH YOU?”
Ethan replied between giggles, “Because you love me, bro!”
Ray rolled his eyes. “Love? More like lifelong suffering
disguised as friendship.”
But as they cleaned up the mess, Ray chuckled softly. Ethan
might be an idiot, but he was his idiot.
And as far as Ray was concerned, life would be a lot more boring without the daily opportunity to roast him alive.
