POV: Bash
Location: Southern Empire
The atmosphere was calm with slow-flowing air carrying scents of all the different dishes offered in the district, we were standing at the side of a wide road with different food stands positioned along it, the three ladies stood in front of me, a shop selling deep fried tempura (fish) was in their background.
Holding the box with my left hand, I use the other hand to pick a stick containing three Takoyaki balls.
"Here you go," I gestured to Nina, her eyes staring at the stick intensely.
"I can't trouble you this much," she said, her eyes still glued to the Takoyaki stick.
"It's okay, you can have it," I insisted, my hand extending the stick even closer to her, I was giving away a part of my late lunch even though I was starving to death myself.
I wonder why I could not ignore their curious eyes.
"You don't have to," Nina's voice said, her palm slightly pushing the Takoyaki stick away.
