Explanation:

This question relates to short story, The Egyptian Tomb by Beatriz Espejo. In it we see a mother and daughter who have a routine Tuesday custom of going out to eat.

Inferences made in the passage show that both women are not particularly happy with the way this meeting keeps going as it feels like a mere routine that they abide by each time. This shows that for a relationship to truly be intimate or to have meaning, it needs to be more than just a routine that people get bored of and always look forward to an end of.
