What the heck is he talking about? We've sat here and listened to the entire conversation from beginning to end. He wasn't there for even 2 hours. And we saw the other customers still there not too long ago.

The key word is "seemed"—he's been so absorbed in their conversation that he's lost track of the time, the world has just slipped by as he & Andre dig ever more deeply into their lives & thoughts. So it does seem like hours ago, and that they're the only ones present.
