Why would he suddenly say such affectionate words? In fact, Ivy Grant was a bit uncomfortable. Precisely because Ivy was carefree, she hoped that the people around her would be just as carefree, so she wouldn't feel awkward.
But it was alright, because it was only Dylan Flack beside her, and since Dylan had always been so good to Ivy, she only felt a brief moment of embarrassment on her face and then let it go, continuing to play with the water.
Twenty minutes passed like this, and Dylan couldn't shake off the feeling of heaviness in his chest, as if something was about to happen.

Could it be that he simply hadn't rested well enough?
If that was the case, then it was alright.
