Startled, Estrella inquired, “Why did you come here?”

With a nonchalant air, Jason replied, “Can’t I come over for a meal?”

Estrella propped herself up on her elbows and chuckled, “It’s just that you haven’t come by in the past couple of years, so forgive me for being a bit flustered.”

Jason gazed at Estrella intently. Though she was smiling, something seemed off to him.

Getting out of bed, Estrella neatly folded her sheets. With Jason engrossed in a book on the couch, she poured herself a glass of water and settled down at her desk to catch up on work.

From the couch, Jason glanced at Estrella, sensing that something was amiss. They were both absorbed in their tasks until Autumn knocked and called them down for dinner.

“Jason, it’s so rare for you to visit. Please, help yourself to more,” Autumn offered warmly, making Jason feel somewhat uncomfortable.
