Russell looked at Aveline. "What do you feel like eating?"

Selena chimed in, "We already asked her. She said she was fine with anything. When we asked for specific dishes, she just said she was not picky. Isn't that frustrating?" Russell nodded. "It is quite frustrating."

Aveline blinked innocently. "But I really am okay with anything, and I'm not picky at all."

Selena gave her a mock glare. "Should I be praising you for that?"

Aveline grinned. "You could, yes."

Selena rolled her eyes at her without hesitation.

After a moment of contemplation, Russell said, "I'll have something delivered then."

Aveline hesitated. "Wouldn't that be too much trouble?"

"Oh, okay." Aveline nodded in agreement.
