AYESHA WOULD HAVE never thought she would accept to have a drink with Jon at eight in the evening. Seth's café was rather crowded this evening. Some people came to eat, others to have a drink and a chat, as Jon and Ayesha were doing.

The young woman would love to stay focused on what Jon was telling her, but her gaze wouldn't leave Ellie, who was sitting with Dina and Jesse and some other people at the back of the room. Occasionally, her gaze would meet hers, and she'd immediately look away.

"And you? What are your hobbies?" Jon suddenly asks, drawing the woman's attention back on him.

"Huh?" Ayesha raises her eyebrows, "Oh, having tea with infected corpse before going to bed."

Jon stifles a laugh before blinking confusedly several times, wanting to make sure Ayesha was kidding, but she doesn't let anything show on her face, as if she were serious.

"This is a joke," she starts, noticing Jon was kind of believing it, "I don't have much hobbies here."

Jon then laughed and took a sip of his tequila, watching Ayesha intently.

"You don't fight or something? And do you mean you had hobbies before coming here?"

"Oh, hell no. I can't fight. And yes, I used to race cars with my friends before arriving here." Ayesha answers.

"You can't fight?" Jon asks, quite surprised, "I always thought you knew how to fight."

Ayesha starts giggling, realizing that this isn't the first time she's been told something like this.

"I know how to use a gun, that's already a lot."

Jon then started laughing, and Ayesha found this curious. He laughed at everything she said, and the young woman had begun to wonder if it was because he was taking the piss out of her, or if it was because he didn't know what to say.

"You're a car lover?" He asks.

"Oh, you should've never let that topic in this conversation, you don't know what you're getting into, I won't shut my mouth about it," Ayesha pauses, "I love cars."

"So you're a pro driving cars? Like Toretto?" Jon smiles.

Ayesha shrugs nonchalantly, clearly not feeling as good as Toretto.

"Not that good." She chuckles.

"Okay Letty Ortiz." Jon gives her a new nickname.

The young woman only laughs in reply, and just as she's about to say something, a more than familiar voice interrupts her.

"Ayesha, can I talk to you?" Ellie storms out, she seems mad.

Ayesha turns completely to Ellie before raising an eyebrow, never having seen her so angry before, this is a first. Ayesha climbs down from her stool before turning to Jon, who looked just as confused.

"Sure..." Ayesha says, hesitant.

And almost immediately Ellie and Ayesha moved away, finding themselves not far from the toilets where David had locked them up nearly two months ago.
