7. A Strange Request
Robin had dragged Vlad out for dinner in his favourite restaurant one night.
Vlad had complained saying he wasn't hungry. But Robin had only had one sandwich all day and was hungry.
Robin ordered his usual lasagne.
'Steak extra-rare,' Vlad ordered.
'Of course, sir, would you like garlic with that?' the waiter asked.
'No,' said Vlad sharply.
'Any salad?' asked the waiter looking unnerved.
'No,' Vlad repeated.
'I take it you don't like garlic?' said Robin.
'Hate it,' agreed Vlad.
When Vlad's extra-rare steak and chips came Robin wrinkled his nose at the smell of blood. He was pleased when the smell of lasagne came over his way. He started but stopped as Vlad's started dipping his chips into the congealed blood. He practically sucked all the blood from the steak.
'Well that was nice,' murmured Vlad.
Robin looked at his untouched lasagne, 'really?' he asked weakly.
