Jolie burst into laughter, her mood instantly lifted by his quick-witted remark. Her earlier irritation dissipated, replaced by lightheartedness.

Whether or not he meant it, the fact that he sided with her made her happy.

"I'm full. Should we head out?" she asked, her appetite long gone after everything that had happened earlier.

Gavin glanced at her plate, noting how little she'd eaten. She had clearly lost her appetite.
