[General] He's going to get something to drink

[Silverobama]

Kris and I agreed to sit in a local Starbucks for a while and I arrived early. In the shop, I met David, a friend of us. I told him that I was there with Kris and he asked me where Kris is. I said "He's going to get something to drink". At that time, Kris went to a beverage shop to get some beverage.

Is my italic sentence natural?

Since Kris is not there at the time of speaking, say: He's gone to get something to drink.
