Cryptic Behaviour

"Uh…would you like to stop for breakfast? We are still a couple of hours away from York but we are on target," Ying Hui's voice brought her back from the passing scenery.

He had been feeling awkward when she had first entered the car. Her perfume had been distinctly floral, just like the t-shirt which she was sporting. He had been taken aback at her attire of t-shirt, jeans and boots. Apparently Eric had asked her to dress informally for the college event. In the current avatar, she looked much like one of those college kids anyways, what with her no make-up face and hair up in a ponytail.

She was even behaving like one, pressing her face onto the window and delighted by the sights outside. But all that had somehow made the atmosphere normal in the car.

Jia Li turned towards him at the mention of breakfast. She shook her head with a smile and nearly brushed past him to reach the back seat where she had placed a big bag.
