May and Emily were surprised to see Kyle standing near the entrance to the women’s washroom. He told May he had been waiting for an opportunity to talk to her since this morning when he saw her at Starbucks.
"Starbucks?" May asked with apprehension in her voice. "Were you following me all this time?"
Kyle admitted with reservation and pulled May closer to his side. "I wanted to talk to you."
May swung her arm away from his touch and Emily stepped in between them. He took one step back and looked up. "If you don't mind, I'd like a moment of privacy with May."
Emily didn't move but kept her glare on Kyle until May nudged her.
"I’ll be fine, Emily.” May assured her. “Go back to the restaurant; I think the food is here. I’ll be in soon!"
"Are you sure?" Emily asked with concern.
May looked around the empty hallway and led them into the lobby. “I’ll be fine here!” She told Emily.
