It wasn't that he wasn't happy. On the contrary, he was, but there were other pressing matters on his mind that forced him to neglect this feeling.
Matters such as the girl by his left.
It pained him to watch her give so much attention and admiration to the azure-eyed teen sitting atop his bed, and he wished with all his heart that she would show him the same affection too.
But he was a coward, and couldn't bring himself to openly admit what he felt towards her.
He was determined to change that narrative today.
"I should be going. I need to prepare dinner tonight." Eva's words snapped him out of his thoughts.
"She's right, we should get going too. You still need to rest and all that." Rita remarked, following Eva's lead and getting up as well.
"What are you waiting for, Tristan? Get up, let's go."
"H-Hai." The green-eyed boy replied, also getting up.
And feeling not quite green as well.
