Re: Chris/Alice - sitting area - 7:53 p.m.
"I am that friend, actually," he offered. No point in sowing lies that could easily be sussed out. "Known Kal since high school. And yeah, it is... nice." That wasn't the word he would have picked, necessarily, but he certainly shared the sentiment. He passed his plate between his hands.
"Speaking of sharing, just... I spent most of that one week in my apartment, so I keep hearing different stories." It was a lie, one that she could have easily figured out, but Chris had to take a risk that she wouldn't go snooping around why he was asking. "When all of that...the stuff happened...what, exactly, did you see? If it's not too personal, you know," he quickly amended, trying to clearly show that it was blank curiosity and not something else that drove his questions.
