"Sure," he shot back while fixed himself some eggs and toast with jelly. 

"I was thinking we could go to that Indian restaurant. I do want me a curry goat and some samosas." Ayusha opened a Japanese egg sandwich and started noshing on it. "Mmmmmm... Tamago."

Shikhiro asked, "What are you eating?"

"A Japanese egg sandwich from 7-Eleven." Ayusha then dipped it in some mustard. "I'm getting ready right after I'm done."

"Gotcha. I couldn't eat those things; they have mayo."

.....

Twelve noon came, Ayusha and Shikhiro were in Ayusha's azure Jeep. Shikhiro sighed. "So, how's the Navy working for you? You found a woman yet?"

"I have to take care of myself first before I go dating. I do want to court this big-breasted, Japanese woman though. I do have a dating idea; I was thinking ice cream or maybe we can share a box of fries."

"My first date was a cup of coffee."

.....

Shikhiro nodded as they walked into Kathar's Indian Restaurant. They were seated 3 minutes later. "That was quick," his little brother said as he picked up the menu. "I'll take the lamb biryani, some pakora, and a Coca-Cola but with no ice."

Ayusha followed suit. "Curry goat, lemon Sprite, and samosas please?" he said to the waiter; the waiter walked off after taking the orders. He turned to his little bro. "So, how's your job at Walmart?"

"Could be better, could be worse. I do get paid quite a bit, you know? And I can shop during my break. I gotta refill my snack drawer, which reminds me."

"We can go do that." Ayusha scratched his hair. "I could go for some snacks as well. 7-Elev-"

A European guy who's angry confronted Shikhiro simply for putting his eyes on said assailant. "You got a problem with me or something?!" he barked as he knocked the complimentary naan of the brothers' table. 

Ayusha got in said crashout's face. "I wouldn't touch him if I were you. I suggest you sit your ass down!"

"Or what? You'll tell my mom?" said unnamed ruffian taunted.

"No, but if he doesn't do anything, I'll beat your ass up one side of this restaurant and down the other!" Ayusha squinted at the bully as he sat down and ate his paneer bites and chicken curry.

"Thanks for taking up for me," Shikhiro said.  

"You're my ride-or-die." Ayusha saw the waiter give the two siblings their food. "I'm starving. Thank you, sir. Also, more naan please? Some tourist intenionally knocked ours down."

"Right away, sir," The Indian waiter replied. "I'm Ankit, by the way. Also, I never hear a thank-you very often. Tell you what: I'll give you guys your food for free!"

"Thank you," Shikhiro responded, shaking Ankit's hand. Shikhiro started eating his biryani. "This is good! My school has biryani from time to time."

"So, what else does the school have besides biryani? Curry? Chicken 65?"

"They don't have chicken 65, but they do have Indian curry from time to time though."  

Ayusha was at Tōtsuki, as was his brother. Ayusha used to be bullied his first year there at the K-12 international school. "One day, Shikhiro, I was being tormented at school by this guy named On Syuk Han, am immigrant from China. The next day, I decided to lay him out with a d'arce. Why? Because the guy took my animal crackers in front of me. Another day later, I decided to talk to him and ask why he bullies people; he said because he was bullied as well for his heritage. We became buddies later when we started in the Navy. We're playing pool at the club tomorrow."

"I see that; I think you told me that you were going through bullying. Poor guy..." Shikhiro slurped his Coca-Cola and started chewing his food with his mouth open; Ayusha followed suit, except he had a lemon Sprite. (If you show bad table manners in Japan, it means you like the food. I could be wrong... Lemme know in the comments.)

Ayusha put curry on his naan bread. "That white guy left his food. He's probably in the bathroom."

He and his little bruv left Kathar's. "Would you want to go to 7-Eleven or CU?  We can do both, Shikhiro; both places have certain things I eat."

Shikhiro nodded and got in the Jeep. "We can do both."

Ayusha backed out and drove away from the Southeast Asian eating place.
