Joe was curious what place Megan has chosen. She claimed that the restaurant was really
special. Indeed it was, but not the way he imagined - the place was so dark he could barely
read the menu. He ordered the very first thing that seemed reasonable and didn’t cost an
arm and a leg. The oriental music just made him feel irritated - he really didn’t like sitar,
considering it a beaten to death cliche. When the food finally was served, he was worried by
the smell, but it was so expansive he decided to eat it no matter what. He was close to
discard this intention as soon as he tasted it, but struggling with the extremely sour sauce
allowed him not pay attention to the gibberish Megan was talking. She wouldn’t shut up, not
to mention she didn’t express any interest in what he had to say on any topic she brought
up, not to mention bringing his own - she was talking only about herself and some trivial
nonsense, and even then she couldn’t stick to any topic for more than 5 minutes, so as soon
as he realized how the conversations is gonna go, he gave up and just nodded from time to
time. He was unhappy about the table she’s chosen, since he had a bad knee and sitting in
a such tight space in the corner was giving him cramps. When the pain was too strong and
Megan’s logorrhea too irritating, he decided he has to go home. He wanted to go on foot, in
order to stretch the knee. He paid for the food, not bothering with asking about splitting the
bill - it was very expansive and he believed in equality and partnership between man and
woman, but he just wanted to get away from this place. He wanted to say goodbye, but to
his surprise Megan took her coat and joined him. He lived far from the restaurant, and she
accompanied him for the most of his way. The pain, the cold and her talking - he could bare
them individually, but not all at once, so he took a couple of bucks he still had after the diner
and ordered her a cab. When she finally left, he breathed the sigh of relief.
