After a good few minutes of listening to Ashley talk about where she grew up, you notice that the waitress comes back. She asks you both what you want for starters, Ashley initially says she is okay, but you quickly type ‘Ashley is always hungry and will eat as much as she can’.
“Actually, can I have…” she begins listing starter after starter, then she suddenly takes a glance at you and slows down. You type ‘Ashley doesn’t feel awkward around me’.
And like that, she adds a couple more items to her order,
“Will that be all?” The waitress asks,
“Yep!” Ashley responds, giving you a cute smile,
“And anything for you?” She asks you,
“I’ll share with her,” you say, smiling, “but may I ask your name?”
“Of course, I’m Courtney,”
“Courtney…” you add, implying you want to know her surname,
“Courtney Geller,” she replied,
“Thanks so much,” you reply, “I think I may know you from somewhere,” you lie,
“Well let me know if you figure it out,” she smiled back as she walked away from the table.
Of course, you enter a secondary name into the device, ‘Courtney Geller’. You were sure you’d use her name later, but for now, you switch back to Ashley.
“So what was that all about?” Ashley asked,
“Oh it was nothing, I just thought I recognised her from… High School,”
“Wow!” Ashley said, “weird how you bump into people you recognise,”
“Yeah,” you reply,
“You know, I was really surprised when I came here and recognised someone who I hadn’t…” she started talking again, giving you another perfect opportunity…
