Coffee.

"Hello Kyle, I'm sorry I'm late. It was hard finding a babysitter at the last minute," Cassandra apologized, sitting on the opposite side of the table.

"It is fine, I'm just glad you came…" Kyle responded.

He gestured for the waitress to come over, and they did just that. They had already approached Kyle multiple times, but he told them he was waiting for someone.

"For a minute, I thought you were going to stand me up," Kyle said, looking her right in the eyes but Cassandra didn't break eye contact.

"I just ran a little late, that is all," she responded once again, sounding distant. Kyle knew he was in for a long coffee date.

They both ordered their coffee and the conversation that followed felt more like an interview.

Kyle realized that she wasn't giving him any room to woo her but this only made him want to try harder.
