Panel 1: A large panel of Elena's figure that takes up the full vertical space of the page. She claps her hands together, as if to close to subject. Her heart-shaped smile is bright and wide. She says, "Well! Let’s celebrate you finally having your first drink, after-- what? Two months of working here?"
Panel 2: Daniel pauses before taking the final sip of his drink to sheepishly agree, "Close. Seven weeks."
Panel 3: Elena faces Daniel as she asks, "So what made you finally decide to have a drink today?" Daniel has on his usual, forced smile as he answers weakly, "Oh, it’s… a long story."
Panel 4: A close-up of Elena's eyes, glinting. She replies, "Kiddo. I’m a bartender. I LOVE stories."
