Every second passed with increasing anxiety. Karl's silence gave her the answer.
"I knew you wouldn't like them. I shouldn't have made them" dropping her shoulder in defeat, she lowered her head.
Gwen knew she wasn't a good cook, to begin with, but still, she wished somehow she would impress him by making him breakfast.
Karl arch his brow as he watched her assume everything on her own." Who said they aren't good? They are the best pancakes I have tasted in my entire life" his blank face contorted as he smiled looking at her.
Gwen shot her head up looking at him in surprise and heard him say again," I like them, Gwen. Trust me they are the best I have ever eaten" his positive response lightened up her mood and she too started to savor them.
Gwen was so surprised by her cooking that she couldn't help but feel proud of herself.
Soon both finished up their breakfast and left for work.
