"So, you're a lawyer?"
Sunye looked at the light haired boy with cute dimples and an innocent look. She was dragged into a blind date with this guy while Sua was chattering with the other boy. They were at a table, drinking while Sunye was simply gazing at her glass.
"I'm right now an apprentice," she replied sheepishly. "Not a proper lawyer yet."
"Oh," the boy said. "You must always be busy."
"Sort of."
She did not know what to talk about. The boy was cute but he was not really her type. Then again, Sunye did not have a type. She was not interested in dating, her mind focused only on work and other commitments. Inwardly, she cursed Sua for dragging her into this awkward date but there was little she could do.
"Want a drink?" the boy offered.
"Thanks...er…"
She fumbled to remember his name. The boy sighed and replied, "James. James Cheng."
"Ah yes!" Sunye exclaimed. "Thank you, James."
