"Here," Raigon offered her a plate full of bearded mussels.
Zoe was speechless. No one has ever done that for her in the past. Not even Erin and Cayden, who was closest to her.
A warm, gushy feeling rushed through her blood as she saw that grand gesture. It made her feel special and cared for.
"Are you still craving for more?" The strange man with the dimpled cheeks continued to ask her as he got some more mussels to unbeard.
"Umm.." She hesitated and glanced at Erin who responded by blinking her eyes animatedly at a rapid rate, motioning her to accept his offer.
Zoe winced back at her. She does not like what she is experiencing, and she doesn't want it to linger on. However, Erin has a contrasting scheme in mind.
She gave her the evil eye as she spoke to Raigon. "Please, please. With all means,"
Raigon nodded in obedience as he cleaned more mussels for Zoe to eat.
