"Are you okay, Coco?" Zaque asked, his palm softly rubbing Coco's back as she hunched over the table, her face buried in her arms.
When Zaque got close to Coco, she was brought to reality and what earlier flashed before her eyes.
She immediately felt her face get warm so she didn't have any choice, but to hide her face from prying eyes and stay silent until she calmed down.
However, due to that kiss being her very first kiss.
She couldn't help, but felt like her opportunity got snatched away just like that.
She didn't expect anyone or one of the four mediators to do something like that so she was really astonished when Alhai kissed her as if it was nothing.
The two of them stayed still, lips pressed awkwardly against each other until Alhai moved.
He cleared his throat, backed away, picked up the book off the floor, placed it on the table, and walked out of the kitchen, stiff movement and all, as if something was pressing down on his body.
