#starter perhaps

Mitch is sitting in the high end Sushi place at a table for two alone.  The bottle of Sake is more than half empty.  The waitress pays him too much attention as she only brings the next plate when he is finished with the previous ones.  The two white roses lay on the other place setting as he stares at nothing his eyes still as he uses the chopsticks skillfully in his large fingers.  There is no emotion on his face but his eyes pained sadness as he remembers to blink suddenly and looks around the restaurant and finds nothing for them to rest on.
