Chapter 455

Zinnia popped a lollipop into her mouth and skipped along cheerfully as they stepped out of the basement. “What shall we eat today?” she asked.

Yannis carried her backpack in his left hand, a light blue scarf draped over his right arm. With a gentle, affectionate smile, he gazed at Zinnia and asked, “What do you want to eat?”

“I’d love something spicy and pasta,” Zinnia said after a moment’s thought.

“Sure,” Yannis said. “Do we have the ingredients? If not, I’ll have them delivered.”

“Yes, I had them delivered,” Zinnia said. She had been craving pasta since last night. When Yannis said he’d be back in the afternoon, she arranged for the ingredients to be sent over.

She had been waiting for Yannis to come back and cook for her. It wasn’t that other food wasn’t edible, but after being apart for several days, she just craved his cooking and him.

“Alright, we’ll do it as soon as we get back,” Yannis agreed without hesitation. He hadn’t seen her in days, and right now, he just wanted to indulge her every whim.

“Yannis,” Zinnia said as she crunched the candy between her teeth, suddenly turning to look at him, “you know, Lydia agreed to meet that guy.”

“I’ll make the arrangements right away. If all goes well, they can meet as soon as the day after tomorrow,” Yannis said. He wasn’t particularly surprised by the outcome. Having met Lydia a few times, he knew she was a strong–willed and level–headed girl.

“Alright, I’ll let Lydia know in a bit,” Zinnia said.

As they talked, they opened the door and stepped inside. Zinnia bent down to slip off her shoes, while Yannis stood behind her, patiently straightening them.

Without a care for anything else, Zinnia declared, “I’m having some popcorn. I haven’t had any all week.” She dashed straight to her personal snack cabinet in the living room, which was already packed with all kinds of colorful treats.
