“You asked for time to think about dinner. So I was giving you time. And then you were texting nonsense about how it was a pity dinner and that we didn’t need to talk. I wanted to let you get that out of your system before I replied. Because you’re wrong. I’m the one that’ll be waiting around for you to deign to go out with me. I’ll give you all the time you need, Ari. But I won’t let you convince yourself that I don’t want you. So, I’ll ask again: Are you done?”
