Watched

“I guess you love the food here. We’ve introduced a few new dishes”. The waiter pushed the sparkling menu card on the table.

“Bring it on. I’d love to savour the food slowly”. The smile is clipped.

“Oh, that’s the best way to enjoy our delicacies. The chefs really put in a lot of effort to infuse flavours.”

Silence.

“By the way, I see you looking at the entrance door quite often. Are you waiting for someone?”

Silence.

“What kind of entrée will interest you?”

“The table in the corner always unoccupied and the camera in the whale swinging above.”
