Elena did not let him finish his words. She must have converted her earlier annoyance into the strength she used to push him away. "We can as well get meaningful with our lives while waiting for breakfast." Saying that, she rose to her feet and walked into the bathroom without looking back.

After brushing his teeth and washing his face, he changed into his workout outfit and picked up his phone to order breakfast.
