"You did not?" Lunara asked, still holding tight onto Eryx's hand as they made their way to the car.
"What? Brunch?" he replied casually, opening the passenger door for her. His gaze flicked toward her, subtly urging her to get in.
"Hmm," she blinked up at him in response, a quiet hum passing her lips.
"I heard someone sulking over this," he added with a soft smile before gently closing the door and circling to the driver's side.
By the time he slid into his seat, Lunara had already leaned over, eyes fixed on him with her lips pressed into a straight thin smile.
"So," she said, her voice calm but edged with curiosity, "why did she say she had brunch with you? She even told me… you didn't eat much that day."
Her words hung in the space between them, not quite accusatory but not entirely innocent either.
