After being frightened by Roy Lewis' hoarse voice, Richelle Dunn lifted the covers, jumped out of bed, put on her shoes and fled.
Roy Lewis touched his sore waist and stared at her disappearing figure with his deep eyes. He didn't smile until she banged the door shut.
He got out of bed and took a cool shower in the bathroom to calm down.
Dinner was eaten out, as South Asian cuisine is quite similar to Federation cuisine. The family of five found a restaurant that Timothy said had good food and sat down.
With the kids around, Richelle temporarily forgot about the awkwardness with Roy Lewis, and even purposely ordered some seafood dishes that the children loved.
Throughout the meal, Roy Lewis was busy taking care of the three naughty kids, and didn't have much energy to pay attention to her.
Richelle enjoyed her meal and on the way back, the family strolled leisurely in the cool night breeze.
