“I loved dining here when I was still a student. Back then, I told myself I’d come here and eat to my heart’s content without worrying about my budget if I were to become rich someday!” Skylar shared while stuffing her mouth full of food.
Having eaten much healthier and luxurious meals his entire life, Tobias couldn’t bring himself to appreciate the charm of such cheap food.
“Your dreams sure are simple.”
Yes, they are indeed simple. I dream of graduating from university, getting married, having kids, and taking care of my family. I used to think it was the easiest dream to turn into reality, but that feels kind of far-fetched now…
“What sort of dream do you expect a person like me to have? My life was practically crap before I met you!” Skylar replied and decided to keep her actual dreams a secret from him.
Tobias topped up her plate with two sticks of kebabs, and Skylar found it hilarious when she saw the contrast between his fancy watch and the cheap kebab he was holding.
“What was your favorite snack during your school days? Fries? Burgers? Or do you not have one at all?” she asked.
Although his school days were far behind him, Tobias had an excellent memory. “Nothing in particular. Besides, isn’t snacking something girls do?”
What the hell is that logic? I don’t understand this guy at all! She placed her cutlery down when she saw that the man hadn’t touched his food at all.
She then asked for the bill and paid for it herself, only to receive a bank transfer from Tobias a few minutes after leaving the place.
The kebab had only cost a little over ten, but the amount she received from the transfer was a thousand times more.
