Aziel checked the time and calmly remarked, âItâs already eleven oâclock, so itâs not breakfast time anymore.
â
âOh.
â Noticing his Lack of response, Sarah attempted to playfully tease him once more, adopting a flirtatious tone.
âItâs all because of your excessive enthusiasm Last night.
My waist is still sore this morning, and I canât even get out of bed.
â
Considering Azielâs typical demeanor, she fully expected a blush or a secret smirk, so she stared at his face.
To her surprise, Aziel maintained a composed expression and gently reminded her, âGet ready quickly and freshen up, or the pizza will get cold.
â
Thrown off by his nonchalant reaction, Sarah sensed something unusual about Aziel.
Unable to put her finger on what was amiss, she complied and went to freshen up.
By the time she reappeared, Aziel had already set the table with cutlery.
Sarah sat down next to him, and as they began to eat, she curiously inquired, âYou used to cook for me yourself, so why did you choose to order food from outside today?â
Azielâs countenance and tone remained unaffected as he responded, âI had some matters to attend to this morning, so I didnât have time.
â
Hearing his explanation, Sarah muttered a low âOh.
â
However, a sense of unease settled within her, and she didnât know what to say.
She stole a few sideways glances at Azielâs profile, certain that something wasnât right.
Given Azielâs personality, after having shared such an intimate night, especially considering it was his first time, his indifference this morning seemed out of character.
Something wasnât adding up; Azielâs behavior was truly not right.
Suddenly, an unease took hold of Sarahâs heart.
She halted her words, musing over Azielâs peculiar behavior.
âIâve got some matters to attend to.
I need to Leave now,â Aziel announced abruptly, interrupting her contemplation.
Caught off guard, Sarah blurted out, âI need to leave for work this afternoon.
Arenât you supposed to accompany me?â
Only after the words had left her lips did she realize she was presuming a lot.
After a brief hesitation, she tried to mend the situation.
âDo you have pressing work matters to attend to? If so, go ahead.
I can take care of myself.
â
There was a faint hint of disappointment in Sarahâs voice.
Aziel had always been there, ensuring her well-being, and she had grown accustomed to his support.
His lack of concern now felt unusual.

Contrary to her expectations, Aziel responded calmly, âIâm not busy, but Iâm not accompanying you.
â
His words set off an alarm in Sarah.
She frowned, asking, âWhy?â
With a melancholic tone, Aziel answered, looking straight at her, âHavenât we parted ways?â
Sarah was lost for words.
She guiltily lowered her gaze, slowly savoring the pizza she had been eating, and mustered up the courage to say, âBut you didnât agree, did you?â
âBut you wanted to end things, right?â Aziel was devoid of any emotions as he retorted.
