When their food came, the three of them ate in silence but soon the deafening silence was broken by Neon. Perhaps he felt the awkwardness between Eli and his sister. Or maybe he just didn't like the silence. In any case, with him there, Eli and Belle were able to chat without thinking too much about their current situation.
"Belle, am I still going to school in three weeks?" Neon asked during their dinner and this question made Eli look at Belle as well. He was considered her direct employer and he knew that Belle has been busy in the hospital. Although she wasn't fired from her work, she couldn't work as a nurse either. And she wasn't paid for it as well. She could only rely on Eli at the moment.
"Yes, love. I will still send you to school. Do you want to move somewhere? Don't you like your previous school?"
"I'm okay with the place but I will be too far from you."
