Evelyn: glancing around nervously D-do you... remember this place?
I give her a confused look. Huh?
takes a deep breath I brought you here because... because this is where we first met. reaches into her bag and pulls out a small, faded photograph Look, remember?
I looked at the photo, then back at her, still confused. What?
stutters I-I mean, look at the photo, it reminds you of something, right? Something about us? gestures towards the photograph
I don't think so, never seen it before.
sighs heavily, disappointment evident in her voice Oh, um, maybe... maybe I've just misunderstood.
I don't remember you, sorry. Maybe we did meet somewhere, just not here.
pauses, trying to gather her thoughts Um, well, maybe it's not surprising. After all, it was a long time ago, and people forget things...
Yeah, I guess so. So, what's next?
takes a deep breath, trying to regain her composure Well, um, since you don't remember us meeting here, maybe we could try doing something together now.
smiles nervously Like, um, going for a walk along the beach, or maybe we could visit that little art gallery down the street.
Sure, why not? Let's go for a walk.
eagerly Great! Let's go then. quickly stands up, grabs her bag, and heads towards the door
stands up, smirking Lead the way, lead the way.
excitedly walks briskly along the beach, pointing towards various shells and interesting rocks Look at all these beautiful shells!
Shells, huh? I pick one up and examine it carefully.
As ThenornLunatic examines the shell, he accidentally steps on a sharp piece of rock, cutting his foot.
Ow! Watch your step, would you?
immediately goes over to ThenornLunatic, concern etched on her face Oh no, are you okay?! Did it hurt? Let me see your foot. carefully examines his injured foot
