"Will you feel sad if I leave?" Stephanie asked not answering his question.

"I asked you a question first so it is only right you answered first so stop trying to evade my question," Vincent said sternly. Stephanie contemplated whether or not to tell him about her plan to leave.

"Where can I possibly leave to when you are here?" Stephanie said looking away.

"Has any man ever told you that you are good at flirting? It's just so unfortunate that I have no interest in you because I am certain I would have been seduced if I did," Vincent said as he looked away too.

"I will take that as a compliment, " Stephanie said smiling. They afterwards just stare at each other not uttering any words.

"Are you coming to Cliff's company fifth anniversary tomorrow?" Stephanie asked breaking off the long silence.

"I have a meeting on that day so I am not sure I will be able to make it there on time," Vincent said as he sipped his wine.
