"Next ti, don't wait. My wife does, but that is because she likes to eat with . I can't be sure when I can get out of there, so just eat if you're hungry!" Kevin said that while looking at Leena. He almost smiled, but he stopped himself.
"But we don't know if you will be late! So just call next ti. Do you know how annoying it is to wait? There is so much yummy food here, that our tummies are growling while we wait. So stop torturing us and call!" Leena gave Claire a thankful look. This was precisely what she wanted to tell Kevin. But for so reason she wouldn't tell him this directly. So Claire stepped up to the plate and did Leena a favor.
"Okay, I will." Kevin noticed the silent exchange between the two, and apparently it was Leena who wanted to say sothing. 'Would you still hold back if Claire hadn't said sothing?' Kevin thought, 'I told you to co to if you had a problem.' He never thought that he should give Leena a call if he was unable to get ho on ti. Was he too busy to call? Or did he just not care enough to ask how Leena felt? So did she just sit there, anxiously waiting for him to co ho? And why didn't he even think of that?
"Go wash your hands. Dinner is up." Kevin's gaze brought an embarrassed smile to Leena's face. She lowered her head to avoid eye contact.
"Hmm! I can't eat if I don't shower first. I'm all hot and sweaty. Go ahead and dig in. Don't wait up. I'll be done soon." Kevin went upstairs as he talked. He was in such a hurry to get ho that he had no ti to take a shower in his dorm in the army base.
"Let's eat, Claire. He will be back soon." Leena had already taken her seat. Unlike won, n usually finished their showers quickly. Sotis, just a couple of minutes were enough for them. Besides, n didn't take as much ti to tidy up in f
't want Kevin mad at . I promised him we would try and get along." Rather than completely fly off the handle, Claire cald down again after Leena reassured her. She didn't talk about it again.
"Promised Kevin? What are you talking about? Is he making you be nice to ?" Leena felt confused. She thought it was strange that Claire was nice to her. But she didn't think about it twice, since most people were nice to her. Sotis it took a bit for people to warm up to soone. Now, it seed that Claire was treating her better because of so arrangent with Kevin. But what did she agree to? And what was Kevin's part in all this? Leena could not help but feel curious about it.
"That is a secret between and Kevin. You will have to ask him," said Claire with her lips curled. Then she dug in to the tasty food, and said nothing more about this secret. The al was incredible, as excellent as anything cooked by Maud.
"What are you guys talking about? I could swear I heard my na. So what's up?" asked Kevin, walking downstairs. He was so quick when he showered. In the past ten minutes, he did things that would have taken Leena an hour. Wearing more casual clothing, he looked quite refreshed.
