A Beautiful Misunderstanding

"What did you buy?" His voice was still eerily calm, just like the waves before a big storm, solemn and slow. She thought for a moment and remembered that she had told him that she would go to the supermarket. She waved her hand dismissively and said, "The fruit wasn't fresh, so I decided not to buy any."

"Did you forget your wallet?" Zac snorted before grabbing the wallet from the table and throwing it at her.

"Yes— Yes, I forgot my wallet." Embarrassed, Essie scratched her head and bit her lip. She forced herself to smile and pretended to be calm. Then, she said, "Where are we going to have dinner tonight?"

"Wherever," Zac replied faintly.

She raised her eyebrows and glanced at him. She had a feeling that there was something wrong with him. Even though he had a blank expression on his face, there seemed to be some coldness hidden in his eyes. He looked so cold that she could not help but tremble.

"How about the porridge shop? Over there..." Before she could even finish her words, Zac turned around and entered the room. Then he slammed the door behind him with so much force that the entire house seemed to tremble.

Something was definitely wrong.

Perhaps he was angered by what happened in aunt Wendy's house that morning.
