“There’s a lot of good places really…now that I think about it, any sort of ethnic cuisine you can think of gets sold…we’re a very multicultural city.”
Terry stated, thinking about it as he tapped his chin, his other hand steering.
“Honestly. I wouldn’t mind Jamaican food.”

“I…uh…gotcha…yeow.”
Terry shook his hand out before pausing, looking at her lack of luggage as they walked back to his car
