No.

They didn't spend that energy...
Because guess whose stomach had loudly screamed, and who had felt pitiful enough to spare him?
Along with his habit of waiting for Zade, Rai had also developed the routine of waiting until Zade came home to eat.
Zade never questioned why Rai did that even after he caught the hang of it. But he was a little confused.
He knew how dead serious Rai was about his schedules, but secretly, Zade liked having Rai accompany him at the table. So, he acted as if it meant nothing, while Rai actively tried to play it down.
Honestly, Rai wouldn't be able to give a clear answer as to why or when exactly it had started.
If he had to pinpoint a moment, it would probably be the day he accidentally burnt the chicken he was cooking.
Overstimulated and frustrated, Rai had to step back and take a break that day. By the time he restarted cooking, it was late, and Zade was already home.
