Hey. Well maybe you can have the people discussing a new outfit they just got, or their favorite place to go with their friends on the weekands. They can discuss a similair coffee shop they both like down the road, or a favorite vacation spot. A lot of times things people have is common is a good type of small talk. I really hope this helped =)! And good luck with your writing (I love to write)!

It would have helped if you told us more about your story and the characters in it to help you develop clever, funny, interesting dialogue for them to use when you first introduce them to us and they first meet in your story.
The key to having great "small talk" or dialogue in general is to write conversationally. This means you will write dialogue that people would say in a normal conversation and not load your story with big words or anything that doesn't sound like someone would talk naturally.
When people first meet and greet each other they may mention that "I heard a lot about you from..." You can also put in dialogue about where they work, their interests, dislikes etc, things them share in common.
You can use anything people would say in a normal conversation when they meet someone for the first time as "small talk" if something doesn't sound natural or right to you when you are writing it's a good sign to go change it.
