"Hinari, you are not dreaming and this is not a dream," Zaki said and Hinari’s eyes slowly welled up. She was so happy she wanted to cry. She wanted to just embrace him and hold him forever but before she could make a move to do that, Zaki suddenly scooped her up and he put her back in bed.

"You are sick. The doctor said you’re suffering from fatigue and dehydration," he explained as he took the glass on the table and put water on it.

"Here, you must drink plenty of water," he continued and Hinari quietly took the glass of water before she just smiled at him so sweetly.

"Aww... my normal knight is taking care of me? Haha, I’m so happy being sick." Hinari chuckled. She looked happy as she gazed at him, making Zaki feel his ears burning again. Zaki didn’t know why but the moment he dropped all his defenses against her, it seemed like everything she did and said were now affecting him so bad, throwing him off his rhythm and effortlessly causing havoc inside his heart. He didn’t know that he was being flustered like this so easily. It was as if he suddenly became putty in her hand.

A knock then made Zaki turn right away as if he was waiting for it. He walked towards the door and opened it.

Hinari just watched him as she drank her water and when she saw him carrying a tray of food towards her, the already blissful look on her face now shone even brighter. She watched Zaki prepare a small table on her bed. The little table was made of wood and it had little legs on each corner so that it could easily be placed over someone’s lap. On it was a bowl of what seemed to be rice porridge, a bowl of strawberry and some orange juice. But what made it very special to Hinari was the little vase with a single flower in it.

"Wow, who prepared these?" she asked curiously when Zaki suddenly averted his gaze. "Wait, could it be that... is it you?!"

Hinari was again shocked when Zaki rubbed the back of his neck before he awkwardly answer.

"Yes, so you must eat it all."

Hinari felt like she wanted to just faint again. Everything was still so hard to believe. When she pictured little chibi Zaki running around in the kitchen, preparing this for her, she couldn’t help but squeal on the inside. She just felt like she’s in cloud nine.

When everything was ready, Hinari licked her lips. She looked like she was dying to eat now but she did not take the spoon that Zaki was holding out for her. She just looked at him with big, round puppy dog eyes before she suddenly opened her mouth, silently telling him she wanted to be fed by him.

Zaki was speechless as he looked at the girl acting all cute and at the same time, being unknowingly seductive again. She blinked at him as her kissable lips stayed open, waiting for him to feed her. His gaze fell onto her lips and he suddenly had the urge to kiss her.

Trying to make himself stop thinking about kissing her, Zaki quickly gave in and he took the bowl of porridge. He scooped a spoonful, making sure to blow on it so that it didn’t burn her mouth, and he fed her.

Hinari looked like there were flowers and stars flying around her face. "Ahh... the food is wayyy tooo delicious because my beauty is the one feeding me. Ahh... I’m so touched and happy! Okay, I want more. Feed me more my love."

After enjoying the sweetest meal she ever had, Hinari’s eyes then fell on the strawberries in the bowl.

Zaki of course noticed so he took one and he put it near her mouth. However, the girl didn’t open her mouth to eat it, causing Zaki to pull his hand back.

"You don’t like strawberries?"

"Hmm..."

"Okay, let me go get another fruit downstairs."

As Zaki was about to stand, Hinari caught his wrist.

"No. I will eat it," she said as she looked at the table before her. "But remove this table first and sit close to me."

Zaki was curious at what she was planning to do this time but he still did what she asked.

When he was now sitting close beside her, he spoke. "What is it? Do you want me to toss the strawberries so you can catch them? If that’s what you’re thinking, give it up. Your catching skills are terrible so I wouldn’t recommend it."

Hearing him, Hinari smirked and she wrapped her arms around his neck. She then took the strawberry and put it near his mouth.

"Don’t bite it, just hold it with your teeth, okay?"

"Hey, wait-" Before Zaki could protest, Hinari pressed the strawberry in his lip, giving him no choice but to give in. He then held the fruit using his teeth and Hinari nodded with satisfaction.

"Now it’s time to dig in. I don’t really like strawberries but if I could eat it like this then that’s a different story."

Zaki was surprised with what he just heard but before he could react, Hinari closed in on him and she started taking small bites of the strawberry in Zaki’s mouth, causing the man’s eyes to widen.
