A
waitress approached the table. Ignoring Caydance's almost empty glass of white wine, she greeted Griff as if he were royalty. He ordered a beer and a plate of artichoke dip and focaccia. It was precisely what Caydance had planned to order as soon as she finished the book. She shut the book, prepared to leave.
The waitress reappeared with a foaming, amber-colored beer in a large glass mug. "Put it over there," Griff said. With surprising grace, considering his size, he moved to an adjacent table.
"I'm a student at Stanford law", he called from the adjoining table.
