He tapped his fingers idly on the table and whiled away the time by listening to the conversations around him.

Maybe he'd catch something interesting.

But she opted for a mumbled 'thanks' and heading for the line over digging a deeper hole for herself. Besides, she did need to get moving. Her shop was set to open in an hour.

So she'll only give Russ a second glance once she's passing by with a drink in hand, sniffing at it questionably.
