"Did you see that?" Hendrick boastfully asked Zafir after he had escorted Stella back to her seat.
"Of course," Zafir responded nonchalantly. He was already used to this kind of behavior from Hendrick.
"THAT, is how you dance," Hendrick said proudly with his chin raised a bit higher than usual.
"Uh-huh," Zafir disinterestedly responded. He was busy observing if Stella was alright after such a magnificent but surely, exhausting dance. He offered her some water despite not being her servant.
Hendrick narrowed his eyes at Zafir when he did not get the response he wanted. He looked like he wanted to be the one offering water to Stella.
"Dear Brother, I know you are awesome," Stella giggled and Hendrick perked up. "But you should also drink some water. You have to go back and dance with the ladies," she reminded and he wilted.
"Are you already giving me away, Little Stella?" Hendrick pouted. Still, he obediently drank some water.
