Chapter 3: Dinner at Emiliano's
The next day, I met Jenna, Matt, and Jill, as well as some more of my best friends Alex Russo, Justin Evans, Max Greenwald, and Carly Shay, as well as Carly's parents, Sam and Freddie, at the Mexican restaurant Emiliano's on the South Side. "Hi, guys!" I greeted my best friends. "Hi, Angel!" Alex greeted back. "What is this Mexican restaurant like?" Carly asked. "Is it something that Nevel would like?" "Of course, Carly," Mrs. Shay reminded her daughter. "Remember how much he used to love Mexican food?" "Sam, do you think that maybe we should get the dinner for two tonight?" Mrs. Shay asked her husband. "Sure," Mr. Benson replied. "Why not?" We then ordered our dinner. I ordered steak fajitas, Jenna ordered shrimp tacos, Matt ordered black bean vegetarian tacos, Jill ordered classic tacos, Carly ordered the chicken fajita platter, Mrs. Shay and Mr. Benson ordered the ribeye for two, Alex ordered the Baja Chicken Salad, Justin ordered a beef quesadilla, and Max ordered a BBQ Burrito. "Thanks for choosing this place, Alex," I thanked my friend. "It reminds me a little bit of that Mexican restaurant, Rey Azteca, in New Kensington that I used to go to with my mom." "Oh yeah," Alex remembered. "We went there towards the beginning of the summer of 2010." "Their quesadillas were pretty good," Justin remembered. "Although, I think their burritos were better than what I am eating right now," Max admitted. "What kind of burrito did you get?" Justin asked. "Just a regular bean burrito," Max remembered. "Just so you know, I have some ideas for outings, too," Jenna pointed out. "Matt, Jill, and I live near you guys in Point Breeze, so we can come see you guys anytime." After dinner was over, Jenna drove me back to my mom's apartment. "Thanks for a great dinner, everyone!" I thanked my friends. "You're welcome, Angel," Alex replied. "Bye, guys!" "Bye!"
