Bab 93: Complicated dinners (6)

Aurora felt uncomfortable in the current position she was in. The food had long arrived with the cook Abel describing what he prepared but it was not this making her uncomfortable. No! It was the man beside her who would not stop watching her take even the smallest bite. What was so interesting about her eating that the man could not look away? "You should pay attention to your own food or you might mistakenly eat something that dropped inside of it," she said in hopes he would get the hint to look away.

"I am in tune with my surroundings and enjoying the sight in front of me. Enjoying the food?" Vincent asked.

"Yes, and you know that because of how you have been watching me. Is there something you wish to say or is this just a habit you have to stare at guests?" Aurora was extra cautious of how she ate and tried not to make a mess in front of him but her poor hand was shaking out of nervousness.
