Still amused about Johns talent and pleasure Alessa smiled and just replied. "I guess."
While saying that she tasted it and it was in any case, a paradise for her tongue.
"Well Mister, this is very delicious." Alessa chewingly continued. "My mind is refused to begin to talk about some business. I have some plans and ideas. First one of it is another relocation to Omicron Delta. The emergency relocation to Omicron Lost before Omicron-74 was inaccessible isn't optimal for the University....Sorry John, but this is so much delicious".
Alessa stucked talking while noticing the taste of the food once again.

Doc could only give a snicker.
"I'll be sure to let the chef know how much you like his cooking," he commented, "I don't know that someone has ever loved the cooking so much that they wanted to forget business."
He then took a bite of his own food. Yes, it was very good.....better than usual. He nodded, "I guess they have indeed improved the menu. Now I know why they take customer feedback surveys and are serious about it. You're right, this is very good."
Doc found his mind more involved with dinner and his date than in business. Music, good food and good company masked one's loneliness and regret as to how he had gotten himself there in the first place.
Of course, the more he ate, the more he would drink. Naturally, good food enabled greater imbibement as another round of drinks arrived.
The crowd of the cafe was growing as shifts were ending and staff just wanted a place to relax. Others took time to provide entertainment to include a "Who's On First" skit.
Quietly, he savored the fact that his guest was enjoying herself. He just went with the flow rather than force issues. In due time, business matters would come....but who was worrying?
