They have known each other for more than 10 years. They have studied at the same university but then their lives splitted them. After 5 years of messaging they decided to go to the restaurant: …Phone ringing…Hey, Matt, how are you doing? - said Max.I’m fine, thanks, what about you? How is your day? I’m fine. So, I was thinking about our university days and decided to call you. We haven’t seen each other for more than 5 years…Oh, yeah. It sounds terrible. We have only online communication this time! Can’t believe that. So, I just wanted to know that everything is fine in your life. Also I thought about an offline meeting with you. What’re your thoughts about it? Sounds great! I like to eat out every Saturday at 2 PM. Do you think that it will be a good idea to meet and eat together? Sure. So, this saturday? Yes, I want to visit a new restaurant called Kruzhok. It is located on Mabble street, 10. Sounds nice. Oh, I need to go. My boss goes crazy when he sees somebody with a mobile phone in his hands.Ok, So Kruzhok, Saturday at 2 PM?Yes! Can’t wait for our meeting. Ok! bye! Matt felt pleasure. He usually goes to restaurants without friends, but this week it will change. He phoned to Kruzhok and booked a table on a name Karl, because he had an alias Karl in student years and Max will be surprised to know that he remember it. _______ ** ** Mat was sitting in his car and was so angry. Traffic jams on saturday? Are you kidding me?But he was nervous not only about the traffic jam. He was extremely impatiently waiting for a meeting with his friend. He sent a sms message to Max:Hey, Max, hope you’re well and waiting for our meeting. So I have a problem with traffic jams. City is overcrowded. Sorry, I’m being late.Hey, Matt, I’m well. No worries, I'm 5 minutes away from Kruzhok and will ask them to escort me to the table you’ve booked. Thank you!Matt breathed out and relaxed. His friend didn’t worry about his lateness and will wait for him. It’s cool. _______ ** ** Matt came to the restaurant with a 10-minute delay. Max was waiting for him and smiling. Hey, Matt! I can’t believe that it's you! Hey, Max! We haven’t seen each other for ages! How are you doing? I’m fine. Guys from Kruzhok said that they hadn’t any reservation on your name.Why? - Matt was a little bit scared. Did he forget to phone to Kruzhok? They said that no one booked a table with your name. Then they asked me for your phone number. I gave it. I laughed a lot when I heard that you booked a table with the name of Karl. It was so funny.Oh, yes! I forgot about it. An overloaded day! They were laughing and talking a lot when trying to choose dishes. One of them has an allergy to eggs, but the restaurant had eggs in most of the dishes. Waiter came to their table:Hello, friends. Do you want a cup of coffee while you are choosing a dish? Yes, please - Matt said - Also I will have a scramble with tomatoes. But my friend has an allergy to eggs. Could you give us advice on what to eat in this case? Yeah, sorry ser, I don’t want to bother you I came to breakfast restaurant with an egg allergyHaha, sure, we have only two non-eggs dishes. Both the burger and fried potato didn't have eggs. What do you prefer? Neither of them, I just want to drink coffee and have a dessert. Ok, so we have a lot of desserts with cream without eggs. I’d like a middle cheesecake. Thank you.Mat was red. He forgot that Max has an allergy to eggs. It was a minute of pause, then Max joked about his allergy and continued to laugh. ** ** The waiter brings them two dishes: cheesecake and potato. I’m sorry but I didn’t order this - said Matt. ok, just a minute I will check your order** ** …Yes, sorry. Just a minute I will bring you a scramble. ** ** After eating and talking Matt and Max decided to walk along the river. Can I have the check, please? Sure. Matt was a little bit embarrassed. The place he'd chosen was awful. They decided to give a 10% polite tipps and run out. What a terrible place I’d chosen, sorry Max. No, problems Matt the main thing today was our friendship, not the place. ** ** ## Publication Information - [Roman](https://paragraph.com/@roman-3/): Publication homepage - [All Posts](https://paragraph.com/@roman-3/): More posts from this publication - [RSS Feed](https://api.paragraph.com/blogs/rss/@roman-3): Subscribe to updates
