"Is there anything I can do?" he asked her earnestly.
Yuna looked at him, still undecided if she was going to go easy on him or not. Eventually, she turned to look at him with a look of victory and elation.
"I know! You'll give me an all-you-can-do ticket!"
"A what?"
"If you give me that coupon, then you can't say no to me for a single day. If I want you to say that I'm beautiful, then you'll have to say that no matter what!"
Michael tilted his head. "But… you don't need that ticket for me to say that you're beautiful. You already are."
Yuna froze. Michael's unexpected compliment left her completely speechless. She felt her cheeks blushing, her heart rate spiking to abnormal levels.
She'd heard literally millions of compliments back in her previous life, and probably a million more in this one. And she never really felt that good when she received it.
However, Michael's simple words felt like an arrow sneakily shooting through her chest.
