Ninth Day

"So you've learned our lesson now?"

Aina smugly met Leonel's gaze after the two finally decided to come up for air.

"My lesson?"

Leonel could immediately guess at what Aina was talking about, but for the sake of his pride, he feigned ignorance, preparing the best line he could to shift the topic to the weather. Unfortunately, Aina caught on long before he could say anything.

"No, no, no. I want to hear it. Say it loud and clear: My name is Leonel Morales, and my girlfriend's ideas are better than my own."

Leonel coughed. This was clearly a case of giving an inch and taking a mile. She truly was ruthless, but on the flip side, she had a point.

Ultimately, Leonel had blind spots, blind spots Aina was often able to cover. It wasn't wrong of her to ask him to run more things by her.
