Pascal, Barlow, and Dani drank until slightly after 10 o'clock in the evening. Pascal put down his wine glass, stood up, and prepared to leave. "I have to go."
"Pascal, why are you leaving so early? We only just got here." Barlow complained in annoyance.
Dani also felt it was time to go back. She said, "This place is some distance from Metropolis University. By the time Pascal gets back, it'll be past 11 at night. He still has to go through the last test tomorrow, so he needs to get as much rest as possible and be in tip-top condition."
She turned to say to Pascal, "Pascal, I'm sure you'll pass the testing."
Pascal waved his hand and strode out of the bar.
Dani took a sip of wine watching Pascal leave. As Barlow looked intently at the bar entrance, she said, "Barlow, I want to go dance. Shall we?"
