On their way to City D where the nearest hot spring could be found, Belle was silent the whole time. She didn't have anything to talk about with Eli and he seemed like he didn't want to talk to her either. His attention was on the road and the little kid sitting at the back.
"Neon, I placed some fruits and sandwiches inside your lunchbox since it will take us a little longer to get there. You can eat some if you feel hungry. We'll buy some takeouts on our way there."
"Thank you, Eli. I'll keep that in mind. I am not hungry at the moment," Neon responded before shifting his gaze to his sister. "What about you, Belle? You didn't join us for breakfast earlier. Are you hungry? I can give you some."
Belle finally showed a change in expression as she turned to look at her brother and smiled faintly at him. "Thanks for asking, buddy. I'm quite full right now."
"Eli made tuna sandwiches for you, though. You like them, right?"
