After entering, Zinnia finally handed Yannis the bottle she was holding. She said. “These are herbal pills my Master specially formulated. Take one daily. When you finish them, I’ll make more for you.

“I’ve been taking them since I was a child. They’re excellent for your health. If you take them every day, your health will surely improve.”

Yannis asked, “You have been taking them since childhood?” He thought, “These pills seem not to be just ordinary tonic pills, but specially formulated remedies to heal physical injuries!

Zinnia replied, “Yeah, I was quite sickly as a child. My Master even worried I wouldn’t make it. So he specially made these herbal pills for me. You can take one now.

“These herbal pills aren’t bitter at all. I especially made them sweet for you. You must take them on time, okay?”

As a child, Zinnia was so frail she’d be out of breath after just three steps and coughing after seven. If she walked too much, she’d get dizzy.

Her Master grew increasingly anxious watching her suffer, so he gathered all sorts of precious ingredients to nurse her back to health, and only then did she gradually recover.

Yannis was deeply touched by her care. He could only imagine how much effort she must have put into making these pills. He said sincerely, “Thank you, Zinnia.”

“You’re welcome,” Zinnia replied. She felt a quiet delight that Yannis hadn’t dismissed her herbal pills as some dubious remedy.

“Zinnia, what do you want to eat? I’m free these days, so I can make dinner for you tonight,” Yannis said, his eyes shimmering with warmth and a lazy smile playing at the corners of his eyes.

Staring into his dazzling eyes, Zinnia was momentarily spellbound. She stammered, “You…”

Yannis seemed surprised by her answer, a soft laugh escaping him as some thought crossed his mind. He said. “I’m not on the menu. If you ate me, who would cook for you?”
