[He's complimenting me again. But I have to try getting used to it and not be shy!] Dino thought after hearing Ivan's nice and sweet compliment.
Then Dino smiled innocently and replied, "Thanks, Ivan."
Mrs. Ortega smiled before nicely saying, "Ivan, I should also thank you for taking care of Dino while he was asleep. Thank you very much!"
"Oh, it's fine, Susan!" Ivan exclaimed merrily. "It was my responsibility to take care of Dino after all since I was the one who asked him out."
"Great!" Mrs. Ortega blurted out cheerfully. Then she turned to Dino and said, "Dino, you should thank him properly as well."
Dino nodded at his mother before turning to Ivan and saying, "Thank you so much for inviting me somewhere and taking care of me when I was asleep, Ivan."
"You're very much welcome, Dino!" Ivan replied gleefully. "Thank you also for agreeing to go out with me."
