Lily's blush deepened, but she maintained her composure. "Yeah, that one," she replied, her tone casual, though her fingers fidgeted slightly with the hem of her blouse.
Zinnia glanced between the two of them again, her curiosity growing. "So, how exactly did you two meet?" she asked, her tone light but probing.
Timmy opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out. He stammered incoherently for a moment before Lily came to his rescue.
"It was nothing major," Lily said quickly, giving Zinnia a reassuring smile. "We just happened to cross paths at the resort. Had a little chat, and that was it."
Timmy nodded rapidly, as if to agree. "Y-Yeah, that's all. Just a chance meeting," he managed to say, though his voice cracked slightly at the end.
