Then, the elevators opened to the lower level, where he guided her toward the small coffee shop. There was hardly anyone around, probably because most were sleeping at this hour.
A few minutes later, Evan handed her a hot coffee and a sandwich. "I thought that you might be hungry. I am." He indicated that he also bought himself one.
