Chapter 10: A wonderful evening and a rescue operation
"So my dear guests please have a seat" Janitor was such in a good mood that the others didn't recognise him. "This is one of the restaurants people all over the world come."
They sat on table almost in the centre of the big diner room. It was really luxury class and the waiters were all together wearing gold jackets this evening.
"Buonasera. Avete un tavolo per cinque" asked a young man at the information.
"Even Italians are here" said the Janitor. "How do you know?" "Because I speak Italian." The five new guests sat down near the guys and started making noise.
They shouted and one of them took some cards out. "Dai giochiamo a Scopa" said the man with the curly brown hair.
"Das ist ja mal wieder typisch. Ständig müssen sie schreien" said a woman next to the guys. „The German ones are anoied by the others" laughed Elliot.
The waiter came and told the Italians to calm down a bit. Then he walked to the friends. "Wold you like something to drink? Wine, Water?" Dr. Cox and J.D took a beer, Ted a Coke, the Janitor a glass of white wine and so did Elliot and Carla. He wrote it down and disappeared in the kitchen.
"So I guess this meeting will be boring." "Oh J.D don't think about that now let's have a funny evening" said Carla.
They started to talk about what happened during their journey and that their relationships got closer. "Here are your drinks" the waiter was stressed and hurried to the German guests.
"Wir warten nun schon lange genug, dass wir bestellen können. Würden Sie sich bitte etwas Zeit nehmen für uns?" The waiter didn't understand a word and took his notebook from his pocket. "What do you desire?" he asked. "Das roast chicken mit French fries für uns drei. Was nehmt ihr" "Wir probieren das Steak mit den Saisonkartoffeln" said the man.
The Italians were still playing cards and one of them came to the friends table and invited them for a play. "No grazie, non abbiamo tempo. Un altra volta" answered Janitor.
"I try this one: Season beefsteak with vegetables fresh from our farmer. Sounds tasty" said Elliot. "I like something like salad. Oh that's nice Domenican salad. Turk how about that" "Carla I'm so hungry I take the smoked trout". The waiter came and wrote again down the wishes,
It looked so delicious when the Germans got their diner. The dishes were decorated with flowers.
All in all, this restaurant was really beautiful. Music played and some couples danced on a stage.
But then it happens. The German man started coughing and hard breathing. "Volker was ist los? Gehts dir nicht gut?"
The friends turned around. "He needs help" said Perry. "I'll talk to them you have to save his life." Elliot ran to the table. "Wir sind Ärzte. Er hat eine Herzattacke, bitte gehen Sie zur Seite. Perry help him he has a heart attack. What shall we do?" Elliot was stressed. "Tell them he should sit down on the chair and not move!" said Perry. "Setzen Sie den Herren auf den Stuhl und nicht bewegen!" yelled Elliot. „Open his clothes!" „Lockern Sie seine Kleidung!" Fortunately they could calm the man down and nothing bad happened. "Ich danke Ihnen viel mals mein Kind." "Keine Ursache, dafür sind Ärzte da" smiled Elliot. „Bevor ich's vergesse. Sie sollten Ihn vielleicht doch lieber ins Krankenhaus fahren" mentioned Elliot.
They sat back down. The Italians were clapping thier hands „Bravi. Siete stati molto bravi" they shouted. "They make you compliments" said Janitor.
"You're a talented young group, here's your diner" said the waiter. They started eating and it was great. The meat was well down and the vegetables tasted so delicious.
After finished diner they went on the stage and danced to classical music.
"And
now some rock'n'roll for the young of you!" Germans, Italians
everyone was on the stage.
Janitor paid and then they left the
restaurant. The German woman ran after them. "Kann
ich Ihnen und Ihren Freunden noch etwas anbieten, Sie haben das Leben
meines Mannes gerettet" she said. „Oh wir würden unheimlich
gerne kommen, aber leider müssen wir jetzt zu einem Treffen, wegen
dem wir seit tagen unterwegs sind und Sie können sich nicht
vorstellen was wir alles durchgemacht haben" laughed Elliot. „Na
dann ein anderes Mal. Ich wünsche Ihnen noch einen schönen
Aufenthalt" said the woman. „Ich Ihnen auch. Auf wiedersehen"
answered Elliot.
Together the friends walked to the builing where the meeiting takes place.
