Now that her father had sorted out her bank card, Allison wasn't too bothered by the expense. She thought of it as a small price for keeping things friendly.

Halfway through their meal, Allison excused herself to go to the restroom. Elliott couldn't resist teasing her, “Allison, where are you sneaking off to? Planning an escape because you can't foot the bill? Hahaha.*

Allison shot back, unruffled, “Just heading to the restroom. Why, Elliott? You worried enough to come with me?” “Of course not! Just joking around. You're the one getting all serious,” Elliott replied, trying to play it cool.
