”Do you feel better now?” D asked Elaia with a tone filled with concern.

Elaia nodded.

D scratched his head. Unsure if he would still ask Elaia out on a date in the restaurant that he reserved.

Noticing the fidgety behavior of D, Elaia asked him, ”What's wrong?”

D cleared his throat, ”Uhm... I kinda reserved this restaurant for us. But I don't think it's a good idea right now after all that you've felt this morning.”

Elaia smiled appreciating D's effort. ”Well, I'm feeling better now. Maybe we should still go to this restaurant?”

”Are you sure?”

”Yep!” Then Elaia hopped out of her bed. ”Now, shoo! I need to prepare. See you at the entrance of the hotel by 12 noon.”

D nodded then disappeared in midair.

”Well. That's how you make a grand exit.” Elaia mumbled. She's still not used to D's appearing and disappearing acts. It feels like being with D is like watching a magic show.

She checked her phone and it says that she only have an hour and a half to get ready for their date.

The moment she stepped inside the bathroom to take a shower, Elaia heard a 'ding' notifying her that she received a new message.

She decided to read it after her bath.

Elaia was humming inside the bathroom as she thought to herself, 'This will be our first date. What do couples do in their first date? Should we do some 20 questions? Considering that we're a couple now, I think it's okay to know more about each other in a more personal manner. Right?'

Then she nodded to herself. 'Right.'

After taking a shower, Elaia rummaged through her closet.

Half an hour has passed, and Elaia decided to wear a sky blue halter dress and matched it with a nude peep toe heels that were 3 inches high.
