Steve Burton didn't seem to intend to speak. He continued to slowly pick up the backgammon pieces on the table.

Ruby Gregory saw that he wasn't making a sound, so she also followed suit and remained silent.

Between the two of them, the only sounds were the hustle and bustle in the distance and the crisp noises of the backgammon pieces when Steve placed them on the board.

Ruby thought sitting like this seemed foolish. She looked at the small piece of cake remaining on her plate and picked at it with a fork, nibbling away to alleviate her embarrassment.

After eating so much cake, it was a bit greasy and dry.

The water she had asked a waiter for earlier was already empty, so Ruby waved to a waiter in the distance. Seeing that Steve had been sitting here all along without a drink, she asked, breaking the silence between them, "Would you like something to drink?"

Steve's hand slightly hesitated as he held a chess piece, and then he said, "A cocktail, please."
