That wasn't a light conversation that James expected, it became more than that. When they finished it almost 4 p.m. and James should take her home, but there's no more awkwardness and weird ambiance between them. Everything that happened in this lunch was worth it for both of them.
"Shall we go home?"
James asked nicely despite he felt a little bit of waste to end this beautiful view, the end of the wonderland. He should go back to where he was, it's over before he truly enjoys it. This lunch was just a conflict resolution and this was how they finished it. Their bond had come to the next step.
"Okay, we're spending too much time here, aren't we?"
"Yeah, this place is great," James replied while his hand tried to find the car keys.
Alice also packed her thing, "Oh god, this is too soon to be drinking this much."
"Yup, you're way too much. Hey, do you see my keys? Damn! I can't find it."
