He was preparing some popcorn that he bought from a nearby grocery before coming to her apartment. Fortunately, he had an early shift, and there were no emergencies tonight. 

It allowed him an opportunity to visit her and enough time to prepare dinner. Something he enjoyed doing for her in exchange for a good companion and a movie.

"Can we have both?" She yelled back at him, switching from one movie to another, searching for the perfect one. "Jacob, how is work?" She added.

It was a routine between them to make idle conversation about their day. It broke the awkwardness of not seeing each other for a while. Since her minor mishap and his rescue, he had frequented her apartment.
