Noticing the lack of response, Lance arched an eyebrow and inquired, “What’s the matter? Why therush to shoo me away? Worried that you’ll be caught by your blind date?”
“I’m afraid you might make him sick,” Bettie retorted.
Lance, unfazed, continued, “Well, I also happen to have an appointment with my blind date here, butI’m not worried that she’d find you repulsive. We can wait together and make introductions.”

Bettie, however, recognized the underlying intent. Lance aimed to disgust her.

Bettie’s shock was palpable.
She took a deep breath and firmly denied, “No.”
“Why not?” Lance pressed.
“The username of my blind date is different from yours,” Bettie explained.
