Love Unspoken

Orion gazed at Quinn in disbelief, his eyes bulging, shocked into a speechless silence.

Quinn was eating a hot dog, completely unaware of Orion's astonishment.

Orion opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but then found himself at a loss for words.

Orion didn't even realize when Quinn started to have an issue. If it weren't for her clear and innocent eyes, Orion would have thought she was joking with him. Orion no longer felt like wandering around. She guided Quinn to a nearby bench to sit down.

Orion stared straight at Quinn, trying to read something from her face.

Quinn finished the hot dog and moved on to the second one, taking a bite.

Orion couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat off his forehead as he watched Quinn eat.

Quinn quickly finished two hot dogs, looked at the packaging in her hand, then turned to Orion and handed him the packaging.

Orion took the package box numbly. His gaze darted back and forth across Quinn's face with a blend of confusion and disbelief, as if he were trying to see through her.

Quinn licked the oil stain at the corner of her lips. She gazed at Orion with her clear, black-and-white eyes, appearing somewhat dissatisfied.
