However, it seemed that Logan didn’t believe her, for he still came early in the morning to wait for her. Exasperation clouded Lola’s face when she caught sight of him leaning against the car and puffing away when she came downstairs. Are my words so deceptive that he doesn’t believe me at all?
When she climbed into the car, she saw that he’d already bought breakfast. Smiling, she opened the bag that contained their breakfast, finding milk and soy milk inside. Then, she inserted both straws, but Logan had already started the car. She was all too aware of his intentions, but still, she raised the milk and brought it to him in slight exasperation.
The corners of his lips lifting, Logan turned his head slightly and took a sip of the milk in her hand.
Subsequently, Lola took out the buns he bought and held one in each hand, eating one herself while feeding him the other.
A sense of bliss filled Logan at this moment. She’s never once catered to my whims so much in the past!
Throughout the drive, the two of them got along much better than the previous time, even making some innocuous jokes while en route. For instance, they postulated how miserable Lola’s life would be if she’d truly gotten together with Shawn. Then, they also imagined how miserable Jasmine’s life would be if Logan had married her. Chatter and laughter abounded all the way.
When the car came to a stop in front of the Hunts’ abode, Mrs. Hunt was already waiting there. She recognized Logan’s car, so her expression was one of astonishment when she saw them alighting from the car together. “You came as well, Logan?”
Smiling, Logan greeted her before explaining, “I’m worried to have Lola return alone.”
When this remark reached her ears, Mrs. Hunt instantly beamed. She had a good impression of him in the first place, so she was all the more impressed upon hearing this. Then, she quickly ushered them into the house for a rest.
