00:15"...To be honest with you, it's really awkward when you're sitting and going on a date with
00:19a guy and there are two tables behind you."
00:21But Kai says she has learned to just get used to it.
00:24"...I've had to learn to kind of, yes, they're following me, but also focus and, like,
00:28pretend like they're not there."

01:18me all about his."
