For a while, he made simple small talk with her. He asked how old she was, what kind of music she enjoyed, if she ever finished high school, all simpl... questions that Angel could answer in very few words. When he asked if Angel was just a nickname or her real name, she told him it was a nickname, but she refused to give him her real name.
