Write a conversation between two different individuals in a public setting, overheard by a third character who misinterprets the entire interaction.

This prompt taps into the concept of multiple perspectives and misunderstanding. This is challenging because it requires making one conversation carry two distinct and contrasting meanings. How does the third character misconstrue the conversation? What assumptions or prejudices might lead to their misinterpretation?
