Just then the waiter showed up and told them the specials for the night. After hearing the choices they both choose from the specials instead of looking through the menu. The waiter then took their drink orders and went to place the order.

Dana: So continue with what you were telling me in the car, about Italy, and learning how to cook.
Lara: Oh, yes. Culinary Art. So after I finishing my studies in culinary art, I returned here and got a job at the country club, where has you know, I work. After about two years, they loved me so much, that I became the sous-chief.
Dana: (Dana smiles, recalling thinking Lara was a soup chief) that’s great. I forgot to tell you, I love the great appetizers that you send me, were those your own ideas?

They continue talking about Lara’s career until dinner arrived. During dinner they continued their conversation by talking about how Dana got into tennis. After dinner and dessert, the check came and they both reached for it. With Dana’s hands first on the bill and still on the bill, Dana says.

Dana: I asked you out to dinner remember.

Looking deep into Dana’s eyes, Lara removed her hands. Dana then proceeded to pay the bill.

Lara: I have something I want you to see.
Dana: (Looking at Lara, and shaking her head) okay.
Lara: You aren’t afraid of a good walk are you?
Dana: (Smiling) a walk, no.
Lara: Great.

After the waiter returned, the two proceeded to leave the restaurant and make their way to a boardwalk close by. As they walked on the board walk, they both saw many couples. Many of whom were kissing. Shy out of her mind, Dana knew she wanted to be doing the same thing but couldn’t figure out how to accomplish that mission. Lara smiled at the couples kissing. As she walked besides Dana and swinging her arm.

Lara: I wanted you to see this. I think the view from here is so beautiful.
Dana: it’s kind of breezing, you’re not cold are you.
Lara: No, I’m fine. It’s really warm out here tonight
Dana: I guess we are just lucky.
Lara: yeah.
