Purple

by sayhla

“Tastes like....purple.”

“What?”

“They taste like purple,” Alonzo says, holding up a violet jelly bean.

“They can’t taste like purple. Shit doesn’t taste purple. It tastes grape or strawberry or bubble-gum or -" Just then Alonzo reaches over and pops a Jelly-Bean into Miguel’s mouth.

“...Tastes purple.” Miguel says after a brief pause.

“See?” Alonzo smirks, popping a yellow Jelly-Bean into his mouth.

“Taste like yellow?”

“No,” Alonzo grimaces and spits it into a napkin, “ass. Pass me the purple, I want to get that taste out of my mouth.”
