"Let's just say that if you found out, I'd have you running away from me in fear." Melody joked as she saw Dimitri open the door. It had surprised her since no one had ever really cared to do such a nice gesture. She could only remember her father and grandfather opening doors for her as a small child. Her ex-boyfriend never would do any simple gestures of care. His personality resembled that of a robot. Strict, no emotions, all commands. That relationship only lasted two months, and that was because Melody didn't feel right breaking up with him until after her senior prom. Due to the shock, it also caused her to have a slight blush creep onto her cheeks. It was very flattering and charming that a complete stranger would be so kind when the people she knew weren't even this nice.<br/><br/>"Oh wow, thank you..." she walked into the café before motioning Dimitri to follow her. Since she was a local, she had a specific spot where she always sat. It was outside, as to overlook the river. The tables outside also were covered by giant beach umbrellas, as to not cause discomfort. It was especially useful for the dreaded summer months that were soon to come. When she got to her table, she sat down and pointed to the chair across the table. As she did so, a waiter came out to greet the two. It seemed the man knew Melody since he was already holding a glass of ice water. He set it down in front of her before looking at Dimitri. Soon, a smile appeared on the man's face.<br/><br/>"Has our little Melody finally decided to try dating again?" he asked cheerfully, "That is quite wonderful! Are you going to have the usual?" Awkwardly, Melody took a sip of her water through the straw before looking at Dimitri. This was certainly awkward indeed. It really was a rare sight to see her around men in general, but the whole world didn't have to act like it was a big deal. It only made her feel embarrassed more about it. She had her reasons for being this way. If fate had played her a better hand, she would be socializing more, and dating more. It just wasn't going to happen in the near future.<br/><br/>"Actually, that's not the case," she replied honestly with a sympathetic smile, "He's visiting town and he wanted to find a good place for a cup of coffee , so I suggested this place and offered to take him here. This place does have the best fish after all, and yes, I am having my usual. Fetch him a menu if you so please." with that being said, the waiter apologized before retreating back, to get a menu for Dimitri.
