The Old Restaurant

The streets looked exactly the same. The city vibe has not changed a bit. It has been twenty years, since the last time he has visited his hometown. Coming back, felt like if he had a rewind button on time, and he is going back to his childhood days.

Something that he has promised his family, is to buy them their first dinner. He has kids of his age now. He thought, that they might appreciate the experience of sharing with them something that he used to enjoy when he was in their age. He went to that green and white restaurant, with a big shiny logo with their name (Simon's Burger). He ordered their favorite meal. Then he thought, what if they just did not like it. Or worse, what if they just think it is a normal restaurant and had the same experience as if he ordered from any other place. The place meant something for him and not his kids. He thought, while I am there, at least I treat myself. And when I do that, it would matter less what their reaction would be. As it would count for at least one person who had a nice time. He ordered a shake alongside the dinner and took the food back home and had a pleasant time with family.
