What Do You Want to Eat?

Fortunately, the meal went smoothly, with Damien Sterling not raising any further doubts. 

 

Japanese cuisine, Emma Hart mused, was something she found somewhat perplexing. 

 

Emma Hart thinks it's something similar to durian. People who like it love it, but people who don't like it feel like they're eating shit.

 

Yet, Japanese food hadn't provoked an extreme reaction from her; at least she acknowledged it as eating something raw. Perhaps her palate wasn't as refined just yet.

 

Looking up at Damien Sterling, she noticed his satisfaction with the dishes, implying his preference for this establishment, leading to their repeat visit. 

 

Damien slowly set down his chopsticks and took a sip of sake, a gesture marking the conclusion of their meal. 

 

Catching Emma's gaze, it was undeniable that even a casual glance from him was enough to leave her in awe.
