Chapter 26

"Eh?"

"Not 'Eh', Moron! Just answer my question! Are you dumb or what?"

"I am good, really," he seemed pleased to hear Ariel's question before his eyes fell on Fernando. "But I am more worried about you, Fernando. What really happened until you lost control? You even eat spicy food—something you rarely do unless you are under stress."

"Yes! You are weird, Brother!" Ariel followed Indra's words. "It is not like yourself. Besides, there is something I want have wanted to ask both of you since the start."

"What?"

Both he and Fernando responded to Ariel's question at almost the same tempo.

"What do you mean by 'sample'?"

Ariel's innocent question reaped surprise from him, but not for Fernando, who instead chose to purse his lips and lower his gaze. The man didn't even want to look into Ariel's eyes, which were still collecting his questions just now with an innocent face.
