Todd

Todd ran the scenario over and over again in his head. Each time he found himself tripping over his words, being asked something he could not answer, or just making a general fool out of himself. He came to the decision that the least foolish thing to do would be to do nothing at all (though, also a foolish action). At least in that case no one else would know.

"Todd?" Mindy asked.

Todd looked at Mindy, but kept his lips sealed.

"We're waiting."

"I'll just come back when you're ready to order," the waitress said.

Dodged a bullet, Todd thought.
