"Damn," Liam mumbled as he felt his tongue tingle from the heat of the curry sauce. "This is fucking spicy."
His eyes were watering. His nose was running. It was painful. It hurt.
But it was delicious. He couldn't stop eating.
Kai shrugged. He had no problem handling the heat. His mother and Mika always cooked with an absurd amount of spice, so he was used to feeling his lips tingle from spicy foods. Either that, or it incinerated his taste buds and nerves so he could no longer taste it.
"It's not that bad," Kai replied.
"The hell it isn't," Liam frowned.
"But does it taste good?"
"Obviously."
Liam wouldn't have been eating it if it didn't taste good. The feeling of his mouth set ablaze wouldn't have been worth it.
"You have a high tolerance for spiciness," Liam stated.
"Sure do."
"That's hot," Liam laughed.
"Not as hot as you," Kai joked.
