Now, the minute hand pointed to the four, meaning
Kalinda had been waiting for her food for 20 minutes and
was starting to get bored with her surroundings.
Suddenly, a man’s voice caught her attention.
“Excuse me, is this seat taken?”
Kalinda quickly turned around and was shocked
to see that the man asking was Adrian. “Mr. Adrian?
How are you here?” Kalinda asked, surprised.
“Oh, hello Miss Kalinda! I just happened to be
looking for lunch,” Adrian replied with a small laugh.
“Oh, is this seat in front of you free? If you don’t mind,
may I sit here?” he continued.
“Oh, of course. Please, Sir,” she responded.
An awkward silence settled between them.
Finally, Kalinda’s food arrived.
“Mr. Adrian, would it be alright if I eat first?”
Kalinda asked politely. Adrian gladly gave permission to
the woman in front of him to enjoy her meal.
