Judy glanced between Alice and me, clearly interested.

"So," she began, "who's this guy?"

Alice turned to Judy. "This is Jack. He's from Florida. I met him on the trip to Miami."

Judy looked me in the eyes and smiled. "Nice to meet you; I'm Judy. Did you come all the way to Boston to see Alice?"

I chuckled softly. "No, nothing of the sort. I'm actually here on business; I was recruiting someone."

Alice's eyes flickered. "HEY! You didn't want to tell me what you're doing here, but you told Judy?" she looked at me with raised eyebrows.

Judy studied me with skepticism. "You look quite young for a recruiter."

I shrugged nonchalantly. "Does age matter? Also, I'm not really a recruiter—just something I'm doing on the side while I'm in Boston."

I glanced at my cheap watch. "Alright, I should get going. I still have something to do."

Alice looked up at me. "Can I call you once I'm done with classes?"
