Lenora looked up at him, feeling a sense of disbelief.

During her time at the Fuller residence, Zachary had always been lukewarm to her. It was not like him to bring her a cake.

"You don't like it?" Zachary questioned upon seeing her expression.

Lenora shook her head, then quickly nodded.

Of course I like it.

She had noticed her classmate eating from this bakery before. The cakes were quite expensive, but she was fortunate enough to try their matcha cake once. It was a taste she found hard to forget.

Back then, her father's salary comfortably supported them both. He never skimped on anything for Lenora, but Afternoon Delight's cake was a luxury, much like an afternoon tea. For Lenora, who came from a modest background, it was incredibly precious. "I'm glad you like it," Zachary said with a faint smile before turning to ascend the stairs.

Lenora sat there, stunned, staring at the paper bag in front of her. She could hardly believe what was happening. It wasn't until Zachary was about to ascend the stairs that she finally snapped back to reality. "Thank you."

Regardless of whether Zachary heard her or not, Lenora knew that her voice was filled with sweetness.

For the first time, their conversation had evolved beyond mere pleasantries.

It seemed as if their relationship had taken a significant leap forward thanks to the cake.

She held the paper bag containing the cake, examining it from left to right, feeling a sense of satisfaction bubbling up within her.

At that very moment, even the usually tedious math and physics homework seemed endearing. She placed the cake beside her, silently promising herself that she could savor i I as soon as she finished her homework.

That day, as expected, she finished her homework half an hour earlier than before. She carefully unwrapped the cake packaging, treating it as if it were some rare treasure.

After unwrapping it, she didn't immediately start eating, Instead, she took a few photos with her phone.

But no matter how many shots were taken, she was not satisfied.

After much deliberation, she finally chose an acceptable photo and posted it on her Instagram without any captions but a single cake emoji.

It represented her silent joy, the youthful sentiments she couldn't articulate, and the most innocent and naive love she had ever experienced.

That day, she found the black forest cake from Afternoon Delight to be exceptionally delicious. It was a
