Listening to Thelma's respectful tone, almost as if she were addressing an elder, Charles felt an unexpected twinge of discomfort. Before he could dwell on it, Clement broke the moment.

"What do you want for dinner tonight? I'll book a restaurant," Clement suggested.

A few hours later, they ate and chatted at a bustling fondue restaurant until 10:00 pm.

Charles and Clement had a few drinks, while Thelma stayed with soft drinks. When they were finally ready to leave, she prepared to hail a ride home.
