A Night Rendezvous

Before they moved out of the cafe, Alex stopped his tracks and faced her with a graceful bow. They all panicked a little and imitated him as well.

"Thank you so much for tonight's treat, Ana." 

"My pleasure. I hope all of you will do it well tomorrow." 

With her words, they all chorused in glee like they won't let her down. Elliot eyed sideways as she held her wide grin, squirming. She was delighted to have them and got to know them even for a fraction of time.

But before they finally leave, Alex queried him, "Would you like to return to the dormitory or perhaps stay in your residence?"

"The latter."

"So it is, then. Would you like to stay around for a while?"
