At College
Miles and Kai chatted together outside the classroom when Eden walked in, looking healthier than the day before.
"Hey, Eden! Are you feeling better now?" Miles asked brightly.
Eden gave a warm smile. "Yeah, thanks to your porridge."
Kai blinked. "Porridge?"
Miles grinned. "Oh yeah, yesterday when you ditched me, I went to visit Eden. He had a really high fever."
Eden nodded. "Miles made porridge for me and brought some medicine. I'm feeling much better now—thanks, Miles."
Kai's eyes narrowed slightly as he murmured under his breath, "Why does Eden look so happy…"
Eden sat down, cheerful as ever. "Let's finish the project, then lunch is on me!"
"Woo! Eden, you've got so much energy today," Miles laughed.
"Because of your porridge," Eden replied, smiling at him.
"I told you," Miles beamed, "my mom's recipe is amazing."
Kai glanced at both of them, his face filled with confusion, a strange feeling rising in his chest.
