Fresh out of the shower, Janice asked, "Lemira, what's got you daydreaming?"

"What does it mean when a guy says he wants to talk about feelings, not finances?"

Janice's face lit up with intrigue. "Could be one of two things."

"Do tell."

"First, he's into you, trying to drop a hint."

Lemira shook her head. "No way."

"Then, it's the second option: he's looking to hook up without spending a dime. Going Dutch without even splitting the bill."

Lemira couldn't help but laugh at the thought. That was even less likely.
