said that the watermelon is especially sweet. If it's not, she'll give us a full refund. Quick, try it." The most

Theo and | were the only ones left. | felt so awkward that | wanted to hide.
Seeing that he had stopped eating, | quickly got up to clean the table.
Sensing that Theo was constantly staring a t me, | asked while panicking a little, "Why don't you go and watch
TV in the living room?”
He did not say anything and got up to clean the table with me.
| was startled and quickly said, "Don't fret. Just leave it. | can do it."
He was a guest, so it would not be proper to ask him to helpwith the housework.
Theo seemed deaf to my words and continued to clean the table.
| gently sighed and stopped persuading him.
The dishes were all taken to the kitchen, and | wanted to start washing them. However, just as | rolled up my
sleeves, Theo pulledaside and said with a blank expression, "I'll do it."
He started washing the utensils after saying that.

standing and not doing anything truly madefeel awkward.
In order to ease the awkwardness, | began t o find a topic. “Why did you suddenly move here? Aren't you going
back to Whaldorf City soon?"
He casta sideways glance, his gaze cool. "You don't likestaying here?”
| shook my head. "There must be more things to do in Whaldorf City than here. Your work here seems to have

"So?" He lowered his head to wash the dishes, looking quite skillful at it.

on one side. | waited for him to finish washing.
When he was done washing, | handed him a tissue to wipe his hand.

"Ginger."
"Why are you looking for ginger?"
Theo glanced mildly at me. “Don't you have a stomachache?"
| did not understand what he meant by that and grew even more confused. "It's hurting a little, but what does
that have anything to do with ginger?"
Theo pursed his lips and fell silent for a very long tbefore saying slowly, "Go back to your room to change
your clothes." | glanced behindand finally understood what was going on.
My stomach did hurt a little but | did not expect to be on my period.

Suddenly, | blushed. Theo sighed gently, saying, "Go back to your room and change your clothes. I'll make you «
