"It's delicious," Ophelia cooed, delicately nibbling on a pastry, her every move embodying a charm that Sean found unexpectedly adorable.
"Sean, have a bite yourself," Rosemary interjected, playfully snapping him out of his reverie.
It was impolite to stare at a girl for too long.
Realizing his lapse, Sean quickly diverted his gaze and grabbed a pastry at random, stuffing it into his mouth. "Not bad," he mumbled.
Ophelia's expression soured at his choice.
"The one thing Ophelia can't stand is pineapple," Rosemary revealed, making Sean's chewing come to an awkward halt. The pastry in his mouth had a pineapple filling!
"If you like it, you should have more," Rosemary quipped with a teasing tone, prompting Sean to swallow the pineapple pastry in a hurry. "No, no, on second thought, it's not as good as that strawberry cupcake we shared last time. It lacks that certain something."
His buddies couldn't help but smirk at his rapid backpedaling.
