"Uh..." Benjamin replayed the events from last night, a hint of awkwardness settling in. "I... I was just caught up in my thoughts. No biggie; you don't need to worry about it."

Furrows creased Valerie's forehead, betraying her escalating confusion. "Lost in thought? No, Ben, it's more than just being lost in thought. I knocked on your door countless times, eventually resorting to fetching the spare key from storage. I realize it's a breach of your privacy, but I was truly concerned," she explained.

Benjamin absentmindedly scratched his non-itchy head, momentarily at a loss for words to respond to Valerie. Eventually, he replied, "You know, when I'm lost in thought, my hearing range narrows down to less than a meter from where I am. It's quite an unusual condition, but I go through it."

It must be quite inconvenient to drive a Ferrari for simple tasks like picking up milk at the convenience store. Have you given any thought to getting a daily driver? Just say the word."Benjamin grinned and kept his response brief, "I've got an old sedan that does the job for everyday stuff, so I haven't really thought about getting a new ride."Valerie fixed him with a serious gaze, insisting on more engagement from him. She reiterated, "To be honest, that old sedan is nothing but a clunker—antiquated.
