"They kindly offered, so I saw no real reason to turn them down. This is free food, after all."
Akuma smirked as he closed his eyes.
"That didn't sound so slick, in case you're wondering. Anyway, if that's the reason then I guess it's fine—"
"And also, it's because you didn't reject my parents' invitation to go on that vacation. I believe Mom would have been disappointed if you didn't come with us. So, I'm just returning the favor of not being impolite to your parents."
Akuma answered as he kept his eyes closed. Angelie stared at him the whole time.
"I… I didn't know you had that side in you…"
Angelie snorted as she controlled her laughter.
"What are you laughing at, huh?!"
Akuma finally glared at Angelie.
"Nothing. I just wasn't expecting that answer and you caught me by surprise. Anyway, thanks…"
Angelie then averted her gaze from him.
"And now you're thanking me? What a weirdo."
Akuma glanced sideways at Angelie then shook his head.
