Hey! Story time!
Maddy and Ray have met at the store. It was, for Maddy, her first time going to that place as she is from far away. Ray walked around, parked at the walmart and saw that girl who seemed awkward.
Ray: "Oh ... did she not find where to go? Is she from here? Let's ask her" ...
Ray: "Hey there? everything is okay? Are you lost?"
Maddy: "Hello, yeah ... I don't know where the gate is."
Ray: "Oh, let me help you. You should go somewhere?"
Maddy: "I have to go to the bus station, I'm going home."
Ray: " Let me take you there then."
Maddy: " It doesn't bother you?"
Ray: "It's okay. Give me your stuff, I will put them in the trunk."
Maddy: "Thank you. It's kind of you."
They got in the car and left.
Ray: "I'm Ray. How can I call you?"
Maddy: " Maddy. Nice to meet you 🙂."
Ray: " Beautiful name. Glad to meet you."
Maddy: "🙂"
Ray: "So ... It seems you're new here, where do you come from?"
Maddy: "Yes, I am... So far, like thousand miles away from here. I came for studies. I'll stay here for many years."
Ray: "Great! does it mean I have chances to meet you again?"
Maddy: " 😊 yeah, sure."
Ray: "How about tomorrow?"
Maddy: "Tomorrow? ... Okay, I won't have anything to do."
Ray: "Sounds great 🙂. ... You bought a lot of foods, do you like cooking?"
Maddy: "Yes I do"
Ray: " It's a good thing, I'm passionate about that too."
Maddy: "Yeah?"
Ray: "Yeah. I'm good at cooking 🙂. What I am specialized for is smoking fish and grilling meats. And, making sauce. I slice zucchini grill it with, them, and add some aseasoning."
Maddy: "Cool! How about to cook for tomorrow?"
Ray: " Good idea. You can come to my place. I have a smoker on my back deck."
Maddy: "Okay then 🙂."
Ray: "It's crazy... We just met but it's so easy to talk."
Maddy: "I think it's because we have some common points. And we already found one. We both love cooking."
Ray: "Yeah ... How many are we trying to get to?"
Maddy: "As much as possible 😅."
