"Sorry for troubling you," Rosalie said apologetically. "You've been busy helping me all day. Let me treat you to dinner. What would you like to eat? I'll take you to a nice restaurant."

Yerick thought for a moment and said, "I noticed a Toscanian restaurant nearby that looks pretty good. Let's give it a try."

Rosalie agreed. "Sure, let's go. My treat."

With that, Rosalie carried Steve and went to the restaurant with Yerick. Despite his slim build, Yerick had a surprisingly big appetite.

Rosalie was caught off guard by Yerick's sudden question and felt a headache coming on. "You're just a kid. Pursue me?"

"I'm 19, and I'm a PhD student. Why can't I pursue you?"

"Yerick, don't joke around. I've been divorced twice. Why would a kid like you want to pursue me?"

"I'm not a kid," Yerick said with frustration. "Rose, I'm an adult now. I'm 19, and 20 in a few months. You're only three years older than me. I think I'm a good match for you."
