closed starter @shivanixrao & @amosdeleon

Axel strolled through midtown with Shivani—their stomachs full after a satisfying lunch. The sun beat down on them as they walked. He was in the middle of telling her about his latest real estate acquisition when he spotted Amos heading their way. Instantly, his mood soured. Great, just what he needed—an encounter with the one person in Wilmington he couldn't stand. He'd rather have his teeth pulled than make small talk with this guy. As they walked towards the man, he plastered on a fake smile. "Nice running into you here," he said, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "And here I thought my day couldn't get any better." He glanced at Shivani, hoping she'd pick up on his annoyance and help him end this interaction quickly. The last thing he wanted was to waste his precious time on Amos when there were so many other things he'd rather be doing—like watching paint dry or counting the cracks in the sidewalk.
