"Ah, this food smells delicious," Nessa said as she took her meal, and Liya smiled at her.
"Lady Nessa, thank you as well, this won't have been possible if not for you," Liya replied and Nessa looked at her before smiling.
"Relax, there is no need to thank me, I should be the one thanking you to be honest, you are truly a talented cook, I have a feeling if you were living where I was, you would have made it big, get really popular, but that can also happen here, I guess, except I won't share my cook," She said and they burst out laughing.
"I'd never cook for anyone else as long as you're here, lady Nessa, this is a talent you're nurturing, you deserve the best," Liya replied, and Nessa looked at her.
"It's fine, you can cook for others as well, I might be helping, but the one who is doing it is you," Nessa said and Liya smiled before sitting down.
"Your home must have been different, Lady Nessa," Liya said, and Nessa sighed.
