Both Jeremy and Ryn got out of the elevator. One was wearing the suits he wore yesterday while the woman was wearing jeans with a black hoodie. They headed straight to the restaurant as Jeremy was in rush and Ryn did not want to waste time searching for an empty seat in other restaurants. 

Ryn showed her voucher while Jeremy handed his card to pay for the entrance. Ryn waited next to him patiently. Although they could still be considered as under 'cold war' but the manner she grew up with made her wait beside him patiently.

"You go and take your food while I look for our table," he told her quietly and went straight to the tables scattering rather is structured. Well, at first sight, it did not seem like there was a system there but if someone looked at it again, he would see a sort of neat arrangement in the shape of a bubble.

Yes, a bubble.

Jeremy shook his head in bemused but it did not make him forget what he wanted. He chose a table not too far and not too close to other customers. He knew she would feel uncomfortable if they sat quite far from others (which was possible if he chose the one at the balcony outside) but he learned from what she said yesterday. He could not just think of himself and what he thought was the best for them.

And he knew he needed to learn to control his own emotion, especially his jealousy.

It would be hard but for the sake of their future, he would learn to control it. And of course, he knew it would not work immediately. For something he was so used to, it would take time for him to change.

And obviously, it would take time for her to believe in him. He realized it. It would take her time to believe in him, in them.

Although the road to their love life would face so many challenges, especially their biggest obstacle right now was trust, he believed that they could do it.

He sat on a chair and clasped his knees. He realized that after they started to start back their relationship, he was easily get bothered when she has another male friend. He did not find other men who were working with her as his rival but when he saw how close Ryn was to Harry and the way that green boy was eyeing his Ryn, he could no longer control his jealousy and anger until he placed all the blame on Ryn's shoulders despite he knew her innocence.

Ryn took two huge plates and went straight to the meats. She started to pile a plate with all kinds of meats she could see. Once one plate was full, she switched to another plate. None from the vegetable touched even a small space of any of the plates.

She was a carnivore through and through.

She went to search where Jeremy chose their table was. Once she saw him, she quickly walked there.

"Are you starving?" he asked with a chuckle. Shouldn't she have less appetite in her hangover state? He knew she still has some aftereffect but right now he could not see it at all.

She did not answer. In fact, she only positioned both plates at her side as proper. And then, she went back to get her drink. Her throat was getting dry minutes by minutes.

She needed something to wet her throat and she needed it desperately. 

He was still staring at her food speechlessly. But then, he shook his head in bemused. She would never change and that was what made him fall crazily in love with her.

She would never change for someone else. She would stay true to herself. 

He took out his phone and frowned. Why would his little sister call him this early? Didn't she need to go to work?

He stood up and walked to the balcony when he saw her walking toward him. He nodded and pointed at his ringing phone and then pointed at the balcony.

She did not break her strike while at the same time acknowledging his signal by nodding. She went to sit on her chair and placed both glasses of milk and juice on her side. She sighed as she threw her sight outside, at him. She narrowed her eyes but did not make a move toward him. She did not have any plan to see who he was talking to despite the frown on his face as he was talking on the phone.

It took him about five minutes before he ruthlessly ended the call even when his little sister was wailing at him for help. He put his hands on the railing and stared at the scenery of the morning. He sighed.

He stayed outside for another minute before he returned to the table.

"My food is getting cold," she frowned.

"Wait here," he said as he ruffled her head playfully, acting like he used to before they started their relationship and more like the big brother. She did not say anything but her brows did knit. She watched silently as he walked toward the offered buffet. 

It did not take long for him to return with two plates full of meats. He put them aside and pulled the plates Ryn brought to his sight. The ones he brought were placed on her side.

She c.o.c.ked an eyebrow but did not say anything.

"Wait for a while," he told her and went to the drink section to get their coffee. He knew she needed coffee to feel truly awake. He did not put anything for his coffee but two heaps of spoon full of sugar into hers. He just placed the small spoon on the saucer, next to her cup, leaving his only with a cup with no spoon. Then, he brought both coffee back to their table.

"Your coffee," he said as he placed her drink in front of her. He sat on the chair and reached for a fork and a knife. It was weird to eat only meat in the morning but for her, he would swallow everything with a smile, when if he would get a stomachache later.

She did not say anything, just took a sip of the milk. In fact, she had been drinking the milk while waiting for him. She already finished the juice before the milk. The food went cold while waiting for him but she used the time to wet her dry throat. When she saw him started to eat, she reached for her cutleries as well and started to eat too. She was starving and the first bite of the meat made her close her eyes and sighed in pleasure. Eating meat was the best in the morning.

He almost swallowed his tongue when he heard the sigh. His eyes widened seeing her expression. He gulped hard Has the air-conditioner here broke? It was getting hot suddenly.

As usual, when she met her true love (meat), she ignored everything else. She continued attacking all the meat with gusto and soon enough the first plate was clean. She pushed it aside and stood up.

"Do you want me to refill your coffee or take any drink?" she asked him as she took her empty glass.

"No need," he replied.

He was still trying to finish the first plate and wonder silently if she would notice when he put the still full plate on another table. Err... better he canceled the thought. She was coming. It was already too late.

She sat on her chair and sipped the juice. This was her intake of fruit. The only intake she was happy with. She put it down and reached for the cutleries to continue her breakfast.

"I'll send you back to your room," he said as they walked out of the restaurant.

"Hmm..." she nodded absentmindedly. Her mind was already on her full stomach (so happy) and then at the thought of meeting Mika (what did Mika want to tell her this time?). She also needed to check on the latest status of her house. She could not wait to move into her own home, her real home.

They stepped into the elevator and soon enough standing in front of her room.

"So..."

"So..." he paused. And then, he leaned down to kiss her lips. But, before she could turn her head to avoid the kiss, he stopped.

Sensing the kiss that she was expecting to happen did not happen, she opened her eyes and turned to look at him in a puzzle. She was him pinching the bridge of his nose as he took a deep breath to calm himself.

"J?"

"You... get inside before I lost control," he said as he turned backing her. He needed to calm down in order to win her heart back. He could no longer expect her to run into his open arms whenever he called her. He needed to change his approach.

He must change... for the sake of their future.
