Absorbed in other thoughts, Chloe kept walking towards the hostess to be seated. It hadn't even occurred to her that the person she heard calling behind her was calling her. And she still hadn't noticed the lack of a purse she had walked into the restaurant with.
Only when the woman finally caught up to her did Chloe turn around, also smiling brightly, though a little confused. "Left what?" This could be many things and if Chloe had indeed left something at the bar, she couldn't be sure exactly what it was. Except there was an empty spot on her shoulder and the young woman in front of her was holding her purse. "Oh! Oh, thank you so much!" Chloe said, embarrassed. She took the purse and placed it at her shoulder before noticing the woman's slightly bruised eye.
"What happened to you, are you okay?" Then, she snickered. "Did you walk into something too, because that happens to me all the time!"
