For the past few days, he was greeted by silence every time he came back.

He said he wanted to have dinner with her, but she would reply that she had no appetite. Sometimes when they bumped into each other, she would go to Lavender Garden and stay there until her mother chased her back!

Ever since that time, she seemed to not like staying at home, nor did she want to go out with him alone. Last time, before it got dark, she would always be at home and she would cook too.
