Stella looked at him, touched by his gesture. She said, "You should eat too. I could wait until the crabs have cooled down slightly. I'll deshell them myself."
"It's okay, I'll do it for you," Jasper's simple sentence was firm and unyielding, which made it impossible for her to refuse.
He was domineering and aggressive, but she felt happiness spread in her chest.
Stella didn't refuse his kindness and ate the crab meat that he had taken out for her.
"You should eat some," Stella said again.
Jasper nodded as he hummed a response.
Once the crabs had cooled down, Stella started to deshell her own portion of meat.
It was a blissful moment as she ate the crabs while chatting away with Jasper.
"Have you told Vann about our departure?" Stella asked suddenly.
"Not yet. I'm going to tell him tonight."
