It's been a month since they first met, and now they're back in the same room. They're talking about a dinner party, and she's invited him back, but he's too busy at work to come. He says he'll come back the next time he can, but first he wants to know what's up with the conversation. He asks her why she doesn't say anything. She says it's because they've been blocked from each other's phone numbers for a month, and that she can't figure out what the other person is trying to say. She's not sure if the person is a stalker or not, but she does know that the guy's always talking to her from his own phone. He's a junior, and they used to be classmates in the literature department at the same university. They eat dinner together, and he invites her to come back to his room for a drink. He tells her that he lost his keys to the room, so he has to go to a nearby restaurant to get them back. She tells him she'll have to decline him if he wants a drink, but that she'd be okay if he wanted a bite to eat.
