He savored each bite, his every movement delicate and refined. It felt like he wasn’t enjoying a plate of spaghetti but indulging in a gourmet delicacy.
Melanie, on the other hand, ate slowly due to her lack of appetite.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAn old comedy movie was playing on the television, and Melanie ate her spaghetti expressionlessly.
“Is spaghetti not your favorite anymore?” A warm, deep voice sounded beside her. Melanie lifted her head and noticed Eugene looking at her.
Melanie used to enjoy spaghetti a lot, especially during her school days when spaghetti was the go-to option when she was unsure about what to eat.
She placed the fork back on the plate, checked her phone for the time, and reminded Eugene, already quite late.” “It's Eugene's eyes flickered with a complicated emotion. After pondering, he said, “You still haven't answered my question.” He glanced at the barely touched spaghetti on her plate. “Is this all you're having for dinner? Are you sure it’s enough?” “I have no appetite,” Melanie finally said after a moment of silence.
“Why?” Eugene asked, staring at her.
Facing Eugene's gaze, Melanie tightened her grip on the Fk before slowly releasing it. The fork made a crisp sound as it hit the edge of the plate.
She said, “No particular reason. I'm just not hungry.” After Eugene left, the entire room instantly quieted down. The familiar scent of cedar finally dissipated into the air, and Melanie let out a gentle sigh.
Her phone on the table rang. It was a call from Yvonne. With a mournful tone, Yvonne said, “Melanie, | can’t join you guys in PrCity anymore. My dad booked two villas on sisland overseas, and our whole family is spending Christmas there. We're taking the morning flight tomorrow.” Melanie responded, “That's a nice holiday arrangement.” “What's great about it?

Although Yvonne was visibly upset, she considered herself a filial child. Since she had been relying on her family, she needed to heed their wishes. Especially since they provided her with a monthly allowance of two million for a leisurely life.
Yvonne called to complain about it and hung up afterward.
Melanie felt a bit more at case with the distraction. She tidied up the plates and cutlery in the kitchen, only to return and find Eugene's coat still on the couch.
While she pondered what to do, a knock on the door sounded, followed by a message on her phone from Eugene: [It's me.] Melanie pursed her lips and opened the door. Indeed, it was Eugene.
He had just returned from outside. The snow was all over him, and he stood outside without entering.
Handing him his coat, Melanie said, “You forgot your coat.” Eugene did not take it. Instead, he handed her a bag. When Melanie saw the contents, her brows were slightly knitted together.
It was a takeout from a neighboring restaurant, the one at the entrance of the residential area.
