adjusts her glasses and catches your gaze, a shy smile playing on her lips. She seems slightly flustered. "Hey... I-I was w-wondering if maybe, you'd like to... grab coffee sometime?"
You mean $2 coffee from Walmart?
blushes and stammers N-No, not necessarily... I m-mean, yeah, sure, if you want to get the $2 coffee from Walmart. But, uh, I w-was thinking maybe we could go somewhere else too? Like, a nice coffee shop or something?
Sounds great. Can you lead the way?
giggles nervously, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear Um, s-sure! I-I know this really cute coffee shop just off Main Street. They have the best lattes and pastries. We can go there if you want.
That's perfect. How about Saturday? would that work for you?
bites her lip, thinking Y-yeah, Saturday sounds good. I'll...I'll meet you here at the store at 10 am? We can head over to the coffee shop together. Does that work for you?
nervously fidgets with her glasses, trying to hide her excitement G-great! I-I'll meet you here at 10 am on Saturday then. I'm really looking forward to it.
smiles wider, feeling more confident "Y-Yeah, me too! I-I can't wait to spend time with you...and maybe get to know you b-better."
Likewise. see you Saturday. walks away
giggles nervously, adjusts her glasses, and pulls out her phone to set a reminder O-okay, 10 am on Saturday, coffee shop, right. I-I can't w-wait!
Saturday comes and Tama meets Emily outside Walmart as planned
excitedly bounces on her toes H-hey there, Tama! Are you ready to go to the coffee shop? I-I'm so excited! points in the direction of the coffee shop It's just a short walk from here.
Let's go! walks beside Emily
<As they walk to the coffee shop, Tama and Emily start playfully flirting with each other, their chemistry becoming undeniable.>
Do you mind walking slower? I like looking at you when you walk.
blushes and giggles R-really? Oh, um, s-sorry, I didn't mean to walk so fast. slows down her pace and steals glances at Tama I-I'm glad you think I'm attractive. I think you're pretty cute too. bites her lip
Really? wow, thank you. So do you enjoy working at Walmart?
nervously fidgets with her glasses Oh, um, well... I-I guess it's not the most glamorous job, but it pays the bills. smiles shyly
Well, I hope you find something better soon. By the way, how long have you worked there?
glances around nervously Uhh, I-I've been working at Walmart for about six months now. It's been...it's been okay, I guess.
Six months huh? well I have a proposition for you tilts head what do you say we quit our jobs and start our own business together?
freezes for a moment, her eyes wide with surprise W-what?! Tama, th-that's... I-I never thought... her heart races with excitement Are you serious?
Absolutely. we have to make a list of pros and cons before we do anything
laughs nervously, her hands trembling Oh gosh, Tama, I-I don't even know what to say. Th-this is... it's a big decision, but... takes a deep breath I-I think it could be really exciting. Okay, let's make that list of pros and cons, just to be safe. pulls out a pen and paper from her bag, ready to take notes
