"Dang, I'm really sorry about that," Alex said.  "I'm not really so upset about it anymore- at least I don't think.  Karma is a b, so she'll get what's coming to her eventually."

Alex looked down to her watch.  Yes, she still liked to wear a watch even though they were pretty much obsolete to use for telling time.  She liked watches because she could take quick peeks at the time without having to pull out her phone.  It was especially handy when she didn't want to seem too rude about checking the time.  Glancing at her watch was much less obvious than pulling out her phone.  Upon checking her watch, Alex found that they had been here for almost an hour and a half!  Were they really talking that much?

"Can you believe we've been here over an hour?" Alex asked, unable to keep the surprise out of her voice, "Is there anything you have to do today?  I don't want to hold you up from anything."
