Yannis’s eyes sparkled with anticipation as he looked at her. Zinnia could tell he was dead serious, so she met his gaze. Her clear eyes mirrored his sharp features–high cheekbones, deep–set eyes, and a face that seemed chiseled from stone.

When he wasn’t smiling, he had this cool, aloof vibe. But when he smiled, even just a little, his eyes lit up like a spring garden, and you’d do anything just to see that smile again.

At that moment, Yannis was all focused on getting an answer from her. His usual grin was nowhere to be seen -his brows were sharp, his eyes intense, and his lips were pressed into a thin line.

Zinnia had spent enough time with him to recognize the signs: Yannis was nervous.

Her eyes softened into a gentle smile, and her voice was just as tender. “Honestly… I can’t really tell. You’re both handsome in your own ways.”

It was true. One couldn’t really compare Yannis and Nathan. Yannis was gentle, compassionate, and soothing. While Nathan was bold, radiant, and impossible to ignore.

They were completely different, and if one looked without bias, it was impossible to say who was more attractive. It all came down to who one favored.

“Seriously?” Yannis could hardly believe it. That was a much higher compliment than he’d expected–he never imagined someone would actually think he was just as handsome as Nathan.

Zinnia could see the delight in his eyes–like a puppy with its favorite bone, wagging its tail so hard it looked like it might take flight. It was so infectious that she couldn’t help but smile. Sometimes, she thought he was just like a kid.

“Make a guess,” she teased, avoiding a direct answer.

“I guess you must be telling the truth. Still, I didn’t expect you to think so highly of me,” Yannis said, his face breaking into a radiant, unmistakable smile.

Having lived with Zinnia for months, he might not know every little thing about her, but he had a pretty good grasp of her character–he wasn’t lying.

Yannis thought to himself, ‘I really didn’t expect her to think so highly of me. I always assumed she only had eyes for Nathan. We’ve only been together a few months, but her opinion of me has already soared far beyond anything I ever imagined.’”
