Chapter 118 Why?

( Jasmin POV )

I focused back on Ley's tutorial until my head hurt. We've gone on few real matches, all of which she's won. 

But bingo, I've won a game from my past sets of defeat. I jumped around in happiness when I've checkmated her. She was just so good at it. 

"Good," she smiled.

I was finally learning something.

I just realized the time when Rhio came back. Outside, the sun was setting already in orange pools of skylight and the rest of it was a purplish darkness.

"That's everything for today," Ley gathered back the chess pieces to the box.

"Thank you," I hugged her tight before turning to Rhio. "And you! I'm gonna win tomorrow!"

He just removed his wool coat and smirked at me.

Ley has left.

"Have you eaten?" he sat next to me.

"Have you?"

"I'm asking you," his brows lowered.

I shook my head. 

He just tsk-ed at me.
