When the customer urged him again, he asked, his voice somewhat stifled, "Which one's the trout?"

Morwenna and Mr. White were both speechless.

Everyone assumed Stuart was acting snooty due to his status, but turns out, he couldn't tell one fish from the next. Trying hard not to laugh, Morwenna pointed at a fish swimming merrily in the water and said, "That one there." With a blank face, Stuart grabbed the fish, knocked it out, and started to butcher it.

His technique was all over the place; he couldn't even clean the scales off properly, and ended up chopping the fish into uneven chunks rather than slicing it. Luckily, the old customer didn't seem to mind. After cleaning his glasses, the old customer took the fish, seemingly seeing Stuart clearly for the first time, and said with a smile, "Handsome young fellow, aren't you? Morwenna's boyfriend, perhaps?" Stuart nodded assertively, "Yes."

The customer's smile deepened, "A fine match, one eye-catching pair!"

Morwenna, known for her cheerful nature, had become quite popular among the market vendors and many of the regulars, including the elderly shoppers.

Blushing, Morwenna whispered to Stuart, "Stuart, we're not actually dating."

Stuart slightly tilted his head to look at her, "But didn't you say you liked me?"

Caught off guard, Morwenna mumbled, "Yes, I did."
