Serious Business. Also Food.
Ruth and Jay had agreed to meet at Top Dog in Berkeley at 4:30.

Ruth entered at 4:25 in her favorite denim skirt and a blue blouse, sat down, and set her books aside primly.

She made herself not look at her watch again.

	She just smiles at him. Yeah. Tonight would be the perfect time to talk about... what she wants to talk about. When they're finished eating, she'll help him throw away the plates. "So, see you at...." and she remembers one of the tricks he'd often try, and smiles. "6:30?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
