Julian leaned back in his chair, glancing at Julia and Isabel with a teasing smile. "So, how are you two feeling?" he asked, his tone light but curious.
Julia blushed, avoiding his gaze. "A bit sore, to be honest," she admitted quietly, her cheeks turning pink.
Isabel nodded in agreement, though she tried to hide her embarrassment. "Same here... but fine, overall," she added, her voice soft.
Julian grinned. "Good to know you're both holding up."
Julian's grin widened as he turned his gaze to Isabel. "You know, Isabel," he teased, "you really have a talent for such things."
Isabel's face flushed a deep red, and she stammered, "Wh-What do you mean by that?"
She glanced at Julia, who was also suppressing a smile, clearly amused by Julian's playful teasing.
Julian just chuckled. "You know exactly what I mean," he replied with a wink, enjoying her reaction.
