Zayn raised an eyebrow. "Ms. Weir, you're not trying to savemoney, are you? The portions here aren't very big. How about we order a couple more?" "Mr. Updike, I don't cto this restaurant very often, so I'm not familiar with what's good. You should order since I don't have any particular dislikes," she replied.
Valarie's voice was light and clear, like a babbling brook-pleasant to the ears.
"Alright. Then, I'll gladly take charge," Zayn replied.
After they placed their orders, Zayn told Valarie with a hint of apology, "Ms. Weir, I'm really sorry about the last time. I was negligent. Let's start fresh. I'm Zayn Updike. It's a pleasure to meet you." Valarie couldn't help but chuckle.
Mimicking him, she said, "Hello, Mr. Updike, I'm Valarie Weir, and I'm also glad to meet you." They exchanged smiles, and the atmosphere becmuch more relaxed.

As Valarie stood frozen, Zayn's amused voice broke through her m thoughts. "Earlier, Brandon toldhe was going on a blind date. I didn't believe him, but it seems he was telling the truth."
