Upon entering the café, Theodore summoned the waiter.
The waiter handed menus to both of them and respectfully asked, “May I take your order, sir?”
Theodore casually browsed through the menu and said to the waiter, “I’ll have a glass of iced Coke and one tiramisu.”
Then, the waiter turned to Lucy and asked, “And what would you like to have, Miss?”
Lucy felt a little bewildered by the situation. She thought they were here to discuss something. Why were they eating and drinking all of a sudden?
Nonetheless, she realized that it might be awkward to have a conversation without ordering anything, so she went with it.
She flipped through the menu and said to Theodore, “I’ll just have a cup of black tea.”
Theodore nodded and told the waiter, “One cup of black tea, please.”
Their order was relatively simple, so the waiter quickly served them.
After taking a sip of her tea, Lucy asked, “So, what exactly do you want to talk to me about?”
Theodore took a deep breath. Despite all that went through his mind on the way here, he was still unsure how to explain things to the lady sitting before him. Hence, he decided to cut straight to the point.
