"Are you being serious right now Emma? This better not be some kind of joke!", says William.
"Yes William, I mean it.", replies Emma.
William asks, "So all this time you were having like a secret crush on me or is this out of pity?"
"Maybe I do have a crush on you. I happen to like how you didn't give up on Her and you always wait to order only after she's here, that makes you a gentleman and you are generally nice to talk to.", replies Emma.
William asks," You wanna know what I think about you? I think you're an amazing carefree person, kind and helpful and I guess you'll be a nice stand-in!"
Emma blushes and says, "You really know how to compliment in a funny way but I don't want to be just your replacement date."
William says, " I've been thinking about it and now that she seems to have blown her 6th and final chance, I'm gonna give up waiting for Her, which means..."
"Which means what William?", Emma asks as she comes closer towards William.
William replies, "Which means I'd like to take you out on a date, if you're up for it?"
Emma leans back a little and says, "Sounds like a good idea!"
Emma gets up and is about to leave when William stops her and asks, "Won't you give me your number?"
Emma replies, "It's impolite to ask for something you already have!"
"What does that mean?", asks William.
"I meant, you know where to find me and I want our date to be anywhere but here!", replies Emma.
"Ok, I'll cook you something at home! My place is right around the corner from here, I'll be here to pick you once your shift is over tomorrow?", says William.
Emma replies, "Sounds good! I suggest you get your sink fixed, before you cook tomorrow!!..."
