Sidney and Diana, along with a few others, were seated at a nearby table, eating. Sidney was sitting sideways, facing away from Maria, so while she noticed him instantly, he hadn't spotted her. Maria quickly averted her gaze after a brief glance.

"Let's sit over there," Tiana said, linking arms with Maria and leading her toward a window seat.
