[Cheria gets the feeling that she should say something to break the silence. Still, what is there to say? What doesn't have the risk of ruining everything? In the end, all that comes out is:]

A-ah...

[A slight blush forms on his face as he goes to rub the back of his head.]

Uhh... That was... nice, wasn't it?

["Nice"? It was "nice"?!]

[No, no, calm down, Cheria. Nice is a good thing. Nice is still a positive word, even if it's not something she would've chosen herself. This is Asbel she's dealing with, here.]

[In fact, speaking in Asbel terms, "nice" is quite the compliment. A smile reaches Cheria's lips as she looks up at him.]

... Yes. It was nice.

[drawnbythesword]

[Oh, good, she isn't unhappy. Maybe he didn't mess up here, then.]

Yeah... Nice...

[...Crap, what does he do now? Richard never told him what happens next. A distraction is needed!]

Ah- ...We should probably finish putting away the groceries.

Yes, you're... You're right.

[Asbel will be Asbel, but as long as he agrees that it was nice, there's no problem, right?]

[drawnbythesword]

[Sorry Richard. At least he made it this far with her.

But with, he heads back into the kitchen to finish the job they had started.]
