6 Chapter 6 Crimson Hotel

"What do you wanna eat, Elle?" Drew asked as they got out of their suite. "Something savory delicious, Drew!" She replied happily. "How about you?" She asked, rolling her eyes. "Anything that satisfies me," he said with a wink. "You bet!" Elle teased him. They got out of the elevator. They're on the ground floor, entered the Filipino-American restaurant and situated themselves beside the glass window. The waiter came and handed them the menus as he greeted them, "Good noon, Sir, Maam!" Elle greeted back but Andrew only gave him a smile.

"I want Beef Stew, unlimited rice, Lychee Jelly and a Lemonade," Elle said to the waiter. "What else, Ma'am?" the waiter asked, smiling. "That's all, Sir. Thanks," she replied with a smile. "How about you, Drew?" She turned to him who sat on her right side, facing the counter. "For me, I want Buffalo Chicken Wings, Apple Pie, a Cola and same as her, unlimited rice," Drew told the waiter. " Well noted Sir, Ma'am," he replied with a smile as he mentioned their orders again. He went to the counter and gave the list of orders to the in-charge. He went back to the their table with cold waters and two teapots and cups while they waited for the orders to arrive.

"Elle, I could catch that waiter looking at you," Andrew blurted out teasingly. "Huh? Drew be serious. You are just hungry," Elle snapped back. "Yes I'm hungry but I'm not sleepy. My eyes are wide awake, Elle." He said in a serious tone. "Shh! He's coming over here." She said in a calm and low voice. Drew just smiled broadly. Elle shot him with a tiger look.

"Here are your orders," he said, placing them in the proper places. "Anything to add?" He added. " All is set, thank you Sir." Elle said simply. "Enjoy your food Sir, Ma'am," the waiter in blue pants and white, long sleeve with a bow tie said smilingly at Elle. "Thank you!" She smiled back. "See I told you, he keeps on staring at you even when he's at the counter or here on our table, he glances on you," Drew clarified it. "Nah we're here to eat! Let's pray and eat." Elle diverted the conversation. They enjoyed the food so much. They had a funny conversation afterwards. Drew signaled the waiter for the bill. After paying, they got out of the restaurant and before doing so, "Thank you for coming Sir, Ma'am!" The waiter thanked them with a warm smile. "Our pleasure," Elle responded and smiled simply. They headed towards the hotel lobby to rest on the sofa.
