In this chapter, the narrator tells us that he's been worried about the two of them. He's found out that they're both working on a huge project, and that the head of the project has had a sudden change of plans. The narrator is worried because he usually goes days without checking his phone when following up on a project. He tells the girl that he doesn't know what's wrong with her, but he promises to be there for her if she needs anything. The girl says that she's not worried about anything, and the narrator promises to keep her in his good graces. The two talk about the project they've been working on, and then the narrator asks the girl about her socks. She's wearing the wrong one, but the narrator assures her that it's fine. He also tells her that the project is done, and he'll be eating at home later that night.
