On the way home, Eli took the bouquet of flowers that he reserved for Belle. He also bought her a small stuffed toy that she can place on her bed or on the shelf inside her bedroom. It was a little bit of traffic on his way back, but he wasn't really that worried. At least, he was getting closer to her.
"Al, did you slice all the meat that we need?" Belle asked while moving around the kitchen to prepare their hot pot for dinner.
It was the men's choice to have lots of meat for dinner, so they all agreed to her suggestion of having a hotpot. Jojie called earlier to check on Andrei since he didn't return home with Hapi in the afternoon. Hearing that he will be eating with them for dinner, Jojie didn't complain.
She was happy that her grandson was getting along well with more people now because of Belle and Neon.
Neon and Andrei were watching the Discovery channel once again while the adults prepared for dinner.
