Rajesh was an Indian man who had a crush on a woman from his gym. They have been chatting for months, and finally Rajesh asked Astrid out and she accepted. He asked if she would like to go to a Korean BBQ, and she said yes.
Then the date night arrived. Rajesh was happy. They met at the restaurant.
The old waitress brought their menus, and they decided what to eat. As it was a Koren BBQ, they were going to cook their food by themselves.
When Astrid learned that she didn’t like it and wanted the old lady to cook for them. The old lady accepted as she said nothing. But Rajesh was not happy with that.
Then Astrid started to talk mean about the woman, and about the fact that she was an immigrant and Asian.
There were also some Indian people in the restaurant too. She then started to talk mean about them too, without noticing that Rajesh was also an Indian. She kept talking mean towards them.
She talked about their skin colours, their culture and how terrible people they were. The guests at the restaurant were disturbed with Astrid’s presence. Rajesh was aware of it.
Then the final straw came. After she called them names and insulted them all night, she turned to Rajesh and said, “…. but I like Mexicans. They are good workers.”
Rajesh had no idea what to say. Just because he was brown, Astrid thought that he was Mexican.
Rajesh excused himself to the restroom. Then he went to the table where an Indian family were eating and apologized. He paid the bill, and also apologized the old lady waitress too.
He then drove back to his home. While he was on the road, Astrid called him few times. He didn’t pick up the call, in fact he blocked her number.
