"Lila?" Kieran's gentle voice called from outside the door.

Lila quickly scrambled to get up. She moved too suddenly, and her vision went dark for a moment.

She paused, leaning on the nearby furniture to steady herself before opening the door.

"Uncle Kieran, what's the matter?"

Kieran noticed that she seemed off.

He placed his hand gently on her head. "Time to eat."

He made those simple words sound inexplicably soft and affectionate.

Lila lowered her gaze, trying not to overthink it.

He was a naturally cultured person, and such actions were simply part of his way of interacting with others.

She inhaled softly and nodded, following him to the dining room.

Perhaps because he had woken up earlier today, Kieran had more time to prepare. The breakfast was more abundant than usual.

But Lila kept zoning out.

She hadn't even noticed when Kieran had cleaned the dishes by the time they finished eating.

Only the half-empty cup of warm milk remained in her hand.
