London's Confession

"Eh ... you are smiling? What did I do wrong now?" asked London. He was rather confused. From L's response, he felt that L also enjoyed their kisses as much as he did, but he had no idea L would give him a smile, even though it was a thin one.

Is there anything interesting or funny? he thought in astonishment.

L nodded. She released herself from London's embrace and then walked to the dining table and poured for herself another half a glass of dessert wine. She gracefully stepped onto the terrace and sat in a comfortable patio chair, enjoying the romantic view of the rain while sipping her wine.

"What ... what's so funny?" asked London, still puzzled. He also poured himself a glass of dessert wine and stood next to L's chair. She was solemnly watching the rain. After a while, L was finally willing to answer his question.
