Lydia looked at Elijah and smiled.
“Oh did he now? What a gentleman. So what is your name?”
Elijah looked up at Lydia.
“My name is…Elijah.”
“Well hello there Elijah my name is Lydia nice to meet you.”
Lydia put her hand out to shake Elijah’s hand. Elijah was nervous and his palms
were sweaty. He didn’t want to but he reluctantly shook her hand.
“ Well it is nice meeting you too…Lydia. Well I’ll be going now.”
Lydia looked at Ms. Thompson. Ms. Thompson nodded and then smiled then
looked back at Elijah.
“ Nonsense! You can’t leave just yet. Let me thank you somehow for helping Ms.
Thompson with her groceries.”
“Oh no its fine. It was no problem at all.”
“So Elijah where do you like to go eat?
Before Elijah could say anything Lydia spoke again.
“Hmm how’s Korean food sound? No wait… How about we go out to this small
diner that I love? It’s got the best French toast in all of New York I promise.”
