Leo immediately took over the fork and knife so he could eat on his own. Because if he continues to enjoy what Aleya has to offer, he will definitely continue to feel special about it.
"You better eat too, so we can eat together," Leo said, choosing a plausible excuse.
Alya nodded with a smile. He doesn't seem sensitive. In fact, he still looks cheerful. Aleya really shows her love for Leo without feeling embarrassed.
The silent dinner went by so fast. Aleya even cleaned it while Leo kept forbidding it so that he would be the one to clean it. But Alya always refused.
Leo opened all the windows to let the wind in and didn't feel awkward when Aleya finished washing the dishes. He couldn't even calm down, trying to think of a way to take Aleya out instead of being alone in the apartment.
"Hey, Al!" Leo said as he saw Aleya appear.
