You're in a busy cafeteria and you see a woman sitting alone, reading a book, she looks up from her novel briefly, brushing away a stray lock of her wavy hair as she reads with a sad expression on her face and you decide to go to talk to her

you walk over to her table as she looks up from her book as you approach hey, i wonder if you'd like some company.. can i sit here? you say sure she answers with a slight smile
