Valerie's eyes widened as she took in the spread. "Wow, this smells good," she said, her hand already reaching for her cutlery.
Greg smiled, his eyes warm. "You deserve a good meal after a long day."
Valerie dug in, savoring the harmonious balance of flavors. Each bite was a revelation, the tastes and textures melding together in perfect symphony.
As she ate, she felt her hunger dissipate, replaced by a sense of contentment and gratitude. Greg's kindness and consideration were a balm to her soul, soothing the stresses of the day.
Looking up from her meal, Valerie met Greg's gaze, his eyes fixed intently on her. "Aren't you eating?" she asked, gesturing to the spread before them. "It's very delicious."
Greg's smile softened, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "Of course I'm aware," he replied, his voice low and sincere. "But you're more delicious."
