Michael Sapt could not believe he had let the girls from the office conspire with their friend Bryn into getting him into this situation. But so it went. Sydney didn't sound bad at all, of course, but after all this time, he still wasn't sure how to go about having another relationship, so it was hard to say how well this could possibly go even if it did go well.

So he was sitting here in the Literati Cafe waiting to meet Bryn's sister. He'd arrived early -- as usual.

	"I suppose there are," she said. "I'm sorry if I talk about the team a lot. They're like family and the job is 24/7. It's hard to separate myself from it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Well, a little stability is always nice, but it does seem a little more respectable to be up late because someone was saving the world than because you need to know what the Swiss Franc is at."

And soon, they've finished their cups again. Michael pays the waitress for the coffee and chai.
"Speaking of getting late," he says with notable reluctance, "it seems to be happening. May I ask you to your car?"

	"Normal would be nice." Syd was going to be up quite late after two cups of chai, but it had been a nice evening that she totally didn't mind. She smiled and nodded. "Of course. I'm parked not far away." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	And he'll stand up politely and wait to walk with her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sydney walked along side of him to her car. She was sad that the time was ending. It had been such a lovely time. She couldn't recall the last time she had enjoyed another's company so much. "I had a really great time. It was just what I needed. Thank you so much," she said when they reached the car. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I assure you the pleasure was mine, thank you. I hope to talk again very soon." Once they're at what is apparently her car, he reaches to take her hand with a little half-bow again, but this time, well, cultural differences come into play. Michael learns further this time, raises her hand a little, and kisses it quickly before letting it go. "Good night, Sydney." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Good night, Michael," she said with a friendly kiss to his cheek. "I will talk to you soon." She gave him one last smile before she climbed into her car. (Reply to this)(Parent)
