บท 97: Chapter 45. A Date Under the Moon

After we announced our relationship the very next day, I dragged Elsa on the very first date of her life. I chose a clearing near the lake for an overnight picnic.

It was a trick I'd picked up in one of the novels I was reading. After all, it was a pretty common cliché. The main characters on a romantic walk under the moon-where they confess their feelings to each other.

And since it was my first relationship, I took it seriously. I wanted to surprise Elsa, so instead of sitting in a cafe, I announced that we were going to look at the lake.

When I asked why at night, I said it was necessary. However, my experience as a bookworm told me that in the daylight it would not be so graceful.

Elsa did not argue with me. Near midnight, when Maxie and the elder were already asleep, we left the hut in silence, heading for the nearest body of water, which I had discovered not so long ago.
