He stood up, took the plate from her hand, and said softly, "I'll hold it for you. Is your hand still hurting?"
He knew that her arm had also been hit hard by Lewis. After the doctors examined it, they said it was nothing serious, but it might hurt for a couple of days.
So, seeing her arm constantly trembling, he thought it was hurting again.
"...No need." Fiona Schmidt shook her head and tried to grab the plate.
Norton Abyss dodged slightly, not letting her touch it, and simply said, "Eat quickly."

Though only a few minutes passed, to Fiona, it felt like a long time. The man's closeness was a torment to her.
