Different Concerns

Hearing Derek's compliment, Sofia blinked her eyes and made a mental note. 'This ten steps ahead is really an exaggeration. It's clear that he spoke this with a purpose. But, only a kid and people with a lack of experience can openly accept these words!'

She then arched her right eyebrow and stared at the man. Softly, Sofia spoke her response, "I am too young and inexperienced. How could I broaden your horizon? Derek, in front of me, you are too modest. This makes me wonder how your fraternity has dominated in this area. Modesty is not part of the rumors that I have heard about you."
