Turning Of The Tide

Chapter 70

The pouring rain outside, accompanied by its chilling presence, created a stark contrast with the cozy warmth emanating from the private dining rooms of Thriving Pizza Hub.

For today’s meal, the two ladies deviated from their usual spot in the corner of the main dining area and opted for a private room. The decision was prompted by the freezing weather, which had filled up all the available seating in the main dining area.

While relishing her meal, Sherri tried to divert her best friend’s attention, remarking, “Winter and pizza make the perfect combination. The chilly season calls for steaming hot dishes. Once we indulge in this feast, I’ll be blissful for the entire week.”

To console herself, Natalie decided not to dwell on that particular issue. She chuckled and remarked, “Besides eating, you’re all about designer brands.”

Sherri was relieved by her best friend’s playful teasing as it signified that Natalie’s mond had improved. With a cheerful tone, Sherri replied, “Absolutely! While food and fashion hold significance, welcoming a new life into the world is also a momentous event for me. Embracing a little life brings me immense joy.”

After a brief interval, a waiter wheeled in a rack overflowing with many ingredients. Natalie could not help but be awestruck and exclaimed, “Sherri, did you just order every ingredient available in the restaurant? Are you certain… you can finish all of that?”

She gazed at Sherri with an incredulous expression.

Sherri beamed and exclaimed, “We will turn griel and anger into appetite. Since you’ll be going abroad next year, we should make the most of every chance to relish good food. Let’s savor our meals to the fullest while we still can!”

Natalie pondered quietly, “Am I not coming back?”

Shaking her head, she dismissed the thought and enjoyed her meal.

Sherri’s eyes sparkled with delight upon seeing the wide selection of food. She turned to Natalie, who was cooking the ingredients, and suggested, “Let’s order some beef strips, cheese cakes, beef, shrimps, omelet rolls, and some fish. We should also add mushrrom and spinach, Oh, it seems we forgot to order drinks. Natalie, what would you like to drink?”

Considering the quantity of food being ordered, Natalie expressed her apprehension, saying, “I’m line with anything. Order what you like. Just remember, you’ll have to finish everything you’ve ordered.”

They had already ordered a little of everything, so there was no turning back,

“Don’t worry, I haven’t even eaten breakfast yet, I will finish it, so don’t be so stingy.” Sherri reassured confidently.

“Am I being stingy? I’m just concerned about avoiding food waste. Wasting food is indeed regrettable, you know. Should I eatighten you about the importance of appreciating agricultural products?” Natalie questioned playfully.

“Forget about that. It would be best if you tried this beef roll. It’s delicious and especially tender,” Sherri said as she placed a piece into her friend’s bowl.

Sherri suggested, “How about we order some beer and have a little toast?”
