Doris also noticed Andy had left, clearly unhappy, while Lola was beaming.

She picked up the packed lunch box. “Then I need to get back to work.”

Lewis nodded. “Go ahead.”

Doris walked a few steps, and then turned back to look at Lewis, still sitting in his spot, with no intention of leaving.

She hesitated, went back, and reminded him, “We’re off at 9:30, you should go home first.

“Did you bring your computer?” Lewis‘ gaze was calm as water.

“Yes.” Doris needed the computer these past two days, so she had it with her.

“Then could you lend me your computer for a bit?” Lewis asked.

“Sure,” Doris agreed readily but was puzzled, “What do you need the computer for?”

“I have nothing to do at home, just work, so I’ll sit here for a while, use your computer to handle some business, Lewis said as if it made perfect sense.

“You’re going to work here? It’s not as quiet as home, Claudia, it might disturb you,” Doris kindly persuaded, “You really don’t need to wait for me to get off work.”

And going to such lengths.

“Who said I’m waiting for you?” Lewis chuckled lightly, “I’m here to spend, get me a latte.”

So she was being presumptuous, “Aren’t you afraid you won’t be able to sleep if you drink coffee this late?”

She was the type who couldn’t drink coffee too late, or she’d easily suffer from insomnia.

“No,” Lewis smiled charmingly, “Mrs. Hartman, go ahead.”

The gentle “Mrs. Hartman” made Doris somewhat embarrassed. She had no choice but to turn and leave, heading to the back staff room to retrieve her computer from her locker.
