Oz left after their brief conversation. He unlocked his apartment door and walked in with a confused face. Something about this conversation had made him feel hopeful and contented. His hand was on his chest, feeling his heartbeat and feeling alive after a very long time. But the fact that she had drawn a line between them unlike they used to live before made him slightly disappointed. Still, he was hopeful that they might go back to how they were after she had given him a way open so he could pay her back.
Kiara stayed seated on the chair. As soon as she heard the door close she lifted her head and looked at the door. "He has grown up a lot, Old enough to pay me back." She chewed the remaining food in her mouth,
"His cooking skills have improved as well. It's making me cry." She rubbed her eyes and then looked back at her plate and gave out a deep sigh.
