Can you have a honeymoon after you get married?
Of course!
Oh, so that means Firo and Ennis are still good to go!
Firo groaned and clawed at his face. Why did those words have to come back and haunt him? For the whole day, the recollection of that day nagged at him.
Upon hearing it, the rest of the people – regulars – in the restaurant began to stir and pepper him with questions.
Afterwards, even Maiza encouraged him to go on vacation with Ennis. When he asked her, he got so embarrassed that he ended up making it a cruise vacation for three people, along with Czes. And, well, the result of the excursion? Nothing much. Especially since the cruise was hijacked and crazy things happened.
So in the end, Ennis and Firo still hadn't done it.
"Firo, all you alright?"
Firo glanced up to see his wife looking down worriedly at him. He blushed.
"Yeah, I'm fine, Ennis. Just, um, thinking about some stuff," He mumbled while scratching his head. He grinned abashedly, saw the time on his watch, and cried, "Oh gosh! I have a dentist appointment today! I gotta go…bye!"
He jumped up and upon grabbing his coat, dashed out the door, leaving Ennis watching after him, completely bewildered.
Ennis sighed as she twirled the straw in her soda.
"Come on, Ennis, he still loves you. Anyone could tell that," Miria said, placing a hand over Ennis's.
Ennis rolled her eyes as she took a nice, cool sip and retorted, "But it's just, he's been really busy and all…and we still haven't, you know, done it."
A waitress came over and asked for their orders.
Scanning quickly through the menu, Ennis ordered for a milk toast while Miria ordered a bacon sandwich. When the waitress was out of earshot, Miria leaned forward.
"I think you need to be more assertive, Ennis. Just tell him what you're thinking," she whispered.
Ennis blushed and couldn't respond, since it was probably the right thing to do. She put a hand over her face.
"Here are your orders. Enjoy!" the waitress said as she passed them their food.
Miria dug right into her bacon sandwich but Ennis suddenly had no appetite.
"Not hungry?"
Ennis shook her head.
"Alright, I'll take your bread then. Thanks."
