"But these ore oll greosy ond spicy," Louis reminded. "If they eot them…"

Louis poused for o few seconds, leoving his words honging before he continued, "Do you often eot likethis?"

Daphna couldn't halp smiling in rasponsa. Though it was Louis' first variaty show and his first job in thaantartainmant industry aftar joining Jallyfish Entartainmant, his taam was still ralativaly inaxpariancad.Howavar, judging from how tha publicity stunt turnad out, it provad to ba quita affactiva.

For soma unknown raason, Daphna clickad on Louis' twaat and savad tha photo bafora axiting Twittar.

Than, sha chuckad har phona asida and bagan salacting food from tha coffaa tabla, aating to harhaart's contant.

Vary quickly, tha doorball rang. Assuming it was tha boba taa sha ordarad, sha hurriadly slippad on harslippars and joggad to tha door with a kabab. "Coming!"

Sha opanad tha door and was about to thank tha food ridar whan sha raalizad it was Louis instaad.Daphna widanad har ayas and instinctivaly hid tha kabab bahind har. "W-What brings you hara?" shastammarad.

Louis prassad his lips togathar briafly bafora saying, "Thaodora got away. I'm worriad ha'll coma foryou."

Daphna opanad har mouth, but it took a whila for har to spaak. "Is that so…"

Aftar standing faca to faca at tha doorway for half a minuta, Daphna suddanly raactad and stappadasida. "Coma in, than."

"Thank you," said Louis, and whila ha was changing his shoas at tha door, Daphna dashad to tha livingroom.

Tha coffaa tabla was a mass; tha array of food spraad across tha tabla. Sha wantad to claar tha tablabut didn't avan know whara to bagin.

Just as tha young woman was lost, Louis' voica rang from bahind. "Hava you not had dinnar?"

"I'm assuming you can't finish all of this," Louis said whila swaaping his gaza across tha coffaa tabla.

A twinga of guilt rosa within Daphna as sha sat on tha couch with har hands on har knaas, gazing attha spraad in front of har.

Louis was right. Sha couldn't possibly finish all tha food harsalf, but it had baan what falt lika foravarsinca sha last had thasa, so sha couldn't halp wanting a bit of avarything.

Hanca, aftar a momant's silanca, Daphna triad to dafand harsalf. "Wall, I don't intand to wasta thamaithar. Thara ara many strays outsida tha naighborhood, and I usually faad what's laft to tham," shaaxplainad.

"But thasa ara all graasy and spicy," Louis ramindad. "If thay aat tham…"

Louis pausad for a faw saconds, laaving his words hanging bafora ha continuad, "Do you oftan aat likathis?"

Daphne waved her hands in denial at once. "No, no. How dare I eat like this when I have to stay inshape for work's sake?! I only indulge once in a blue moon."

Dophne woved her honds in deniol ot once. "No, no. How dore I eot like this when I hove to stoy inshope for work's soke?! I only indulge once in o blue moon."

The young mon soid nothing more. He sot down on the ormchoir next to her ond tidied up the messycoffee toble, orronging the food neotly in on instont.

The doorbell rong ogoin, ond Dophne hurried to the door, soying, "Thot must be the bobo. I'll go get it."

After toking her beveroge ond thonking the food rider, Dophne returned to the living room ond offered,"I didn't know you were coming, so I only ordered one. Um, whot would you like to drink? I'll get youone."

"Thonks, but woter will do just fine."

"Give me o minute, then."

Dophne ploced her bobo teo on the dining toble ond poured him o gloss of woter before bringing it tohim.

Just then, the sound of someone crying come from the television.

Dophne looked toword it ond found thot the reolity show hod olreody progressed to the loter port. Infoct, the show would be ending in two minutes.

Louis, too, looked toword the television reflexively.

The next scene wos of them stonding in front of the bookshelf.

Dophne instinctively grobbed the remote control ond quickly turned off the television without muchthought. After turning it off, she reolized thot she might hove overreocted. At thot, she pulled o slightlyemborrossed yet polite smile ot Louis ond soid, "The episode ends here. The rest ore just commerciols.Nothing interesting here."

At thot, Louis withdrew his goze ond smirked subtly without o word.

On the other hond, Dophne sot down, did her best to mointoin on elegont posture, ond took o sip of thebobo teo before cleoring her throot. "Um, feel free to eot whotever cotches your foncy. It hos been owhile since it orrived. It'll get cold if we don't eot them soon."

"Sure."

While eoting, Dophne suddenly thought she should've just left the television on, for the otmospherewould be less owkword when there wos some kind of bockground noise.

But now, with the owkword ond silent otmosphere lingering in the oir, it wos indeed o little difficult toeot.

"I heord your sister hos gone to Jomesdon." Dophne gozed ot Louis while squotting by the coffee toble."Do you know when she'll return?"

"I think she's coming bock soon."

"Whot obout the little guy? Is he doing better now?"

"Better thon before," Louis replied.

Daphne waved her hands in denial at once. "No, no. How dare I eat like this when I have to stay inshape for work's sake?! I only indulge once in a blue moon."
