John soon came back and sat down across from Mary placing the food between them. John had prepared them some sandwiches and the two ate talking occasionally about hobbies and movies. Mary tried not to stare as John sipped his drink, getting more excited with each swallow.
John let out a small belch from the soda,"whoops, pardon me".
