He actually did not know what had gotten into him, or more specifically, to Kamille to do that. With his heart racing, because of how surreal it was, he could only laugh in the end.
It was a meaningful laugh, with meaningful gazes and meaningful gestures. The two, filled with ambiguity, continued eating.
Kamille finally did not refuse and ate with Rise; the two somehow acted just as usual. Rise was subtly flirting while Kamille seemed oblivious but subtly flirting back, whether unintentionally.
It was strange that Rise found himself pausing and speechless. He was stunned because he could not feel the same wall that used to block him in the past.
As though... It had yet to be created, or it disappeared into thin air for unknown reasons.
This progress... Why did he feel something really wrong but could not pinpoint it?
Whatever, at least, they had progress, which was enough.
