"Hi, would you mind if I sit here?" In an elegant and tranquil coffee shop, Dorothy gently asked Leena in a sweet voice, looking at her with smiling eyes. action
"Oh. Hello, Miss Lu. Of course not. Please, have a seat." The corners of Leena's lips lifted into a gentle smile. She was much more mature than she was before. She had that beautiful and elegant aura around her just sitting there.
"Thank you." After these words, Dorothy pulled a chair and sat down in front of Leena. As usual, she had that pair of over-sized sunglasses, hiding half of her face. She looked sexier than the last time they saw each other and Leena noticed it.
"Would you like something to drink? I can order it for you." Saying this, Leena raised her hand and gestured for the waiter to come. There was a small smirk on her face. 'What is going on, that Dorothy and I keep running into each other? I can't even have a cup of coffee alone.' she thought to herself.

Especially an actress that she wasn't comfortable calling by her first name.
"I am wondering if it is possible to ask you a... quite a private question?" After an uncomfortable silence, Dorothy hesitantly asked Leena a question.
"Well, if you are sure that it's a private question, I guess it would be better if you don't ask. There is a reason that it is called a private question," Leena said while playing with the coffee cup on the table. Originally, she wanted to have some time to herself in this quiet coffee shop and think about some things in private. But now, it seemed impossible with Dorothy at the same table, struggling to do away with the awkwardness. She should just go away.
"Umm..." Dorothy was a bit stunned at Leena's subtle but direct refusal. She didn't expect that Leena would be this straightforward and she was taken aback. She just shut her mouth. Now, after Leena specifically said no, she couldn't ask the question that had been lingering in her mind anymore.
