"Sounds a bit familiar."

I think out loud, feeling
a tad bit uneasy.

"Oh really?" Ronin looks
fascinated with me,

showing a small smile.

"Yes....." I reply, wishing
for Ronin to stop staring
at me.

His azure eyes feel
as if they're drowning
me.

I want to ask so many
things yet I feel so
s c a r e d
to do so.

Before I
can form any
words,

Cassandra exits from the
kitchen with a tray.

She ends up serving us a
delicate meal.

Cooked salmon with stream
beans and mashed loaded
potatoes.

For drinking there's either
water or red wine.
