This is max.

Max and Maddie head to the shop. "So, you have a job yet?" Maddie asked and Max shook his head. "I thought I would make a few friends before I went job hunting." He said. She looked thoughtful for a moment before looking cheerful. "I bet you could get a job at the coffee shop, they are always looking for help, and I could throw in a good word!" She said. "You work there?" Max asked. "Yup," Maddie answered. "I'll think about applying then," Max said. "That's great, cuz we're here!" She said as she opened a door to a small little shop. It was pretty full and the people seemed happy there. Maddie walked up to the desk. "Can I have the usual and... uh, what do you want Max?" She asked. Max couldn't decide and so he chose what she got. They both sat down and waited. "So, newbie, where'd you move from?" Maddie asked. "California." He said, she smiled. "Always wanted to go there. Bet its pretty." She said, Max nodded. He felt like he should say something but couldn't think of what.
