What time it was, Rita had not known until she looked to the side and caught sight of a clock on the wall. She had not realized it had gotten so late, and never had been one for staying out all that late normally. The fact that she had a class bright and early the next morning was just a kicker, one she needed to get going.
"I apologize, but I really must go," with a final drink, she set her half full bottle back onto the bar's surface and carefully slid off her stool and onto her feet. "It is getting late, and I must wake early tomorrow morning."
For a moment she did not go anywhere or do anything, as she got her words and courage in order, "I enjoyed speaking with you Micah, I do hope you come by after one of my classes to speak again?" While she had not exactly meant for her last statement to be a question, it came out as one anyway. She liked him, he was surprisingly easy to talk to.
