After spending some time alone in her room, Ember heard Emir's voice calling out, "Baby, it's time for dinner."
She responded, "Coming... Wait, what did you just call me?"
Emir, with a playful tone, replied, "Baby, what's wrong with that?"
She questioned, "Why do you call me that?"
Emir gently said, "Baby, if you don't like it, we can talk about it after dinner. Come on."
Ember hesitated but agreed, "Okay," thinking, 'I haven't even agreed to be his girlfriend yet, and he's already teasing me.'
As they entered the dining room, Emir pulled a chair near his own, but she ignored it and sat on the opposite side. He playfully chased her and sat next to her when dinner was served.
Ember took a sip of water and then put her glass down. Emir urged her, "Taste it. How is it?"
She replied, "I can eat by myself."
With a somewhat seductive look, Emir persisted, "Are you eating?" However, Ember found it more amusing than alluring, and she couldn't help but giggle.
She nodded and said, "Hm," thinking, 'He thinks he's making me blush with those eyes, but I can't control my laughter.'
Emir asked, "How is it?"
She answered, "It's good. Tee-hee!"
"Why are you laughing?" Emir asked.
"Nothing," Ember said with a playful smile.
He urged her to eat quickly, mentioning that it was getting late and she could go to bed after.
As they ate, Emir brought up their previous conversation, making her blush. She requested, "Give me some time," avoiding his gaze.
Once she had finished eating, she quickly said, "I'm done. Good night," and hurriedly retreated to her room.
A knock came at the door, and she pretended to be asleep. Emir entered her room with soft footsteps. He sat next to her and said, "You're too cute when you sleep," planting a soft kiss on her forehead. He whispered, "I love you. You can take your time. It's your decision to choose your partner. I can't force you to love me... Good night."
