Janette realized she may have been too direct and revealed too much. So she started to worry that Johnny would think she wasn't very reserved.
"I simply took notice of you...here and there."
Johnny revealed a handsome smile and did not ask any further. Women were sensitive, so he couldn't embarrass her.
"It seems, I need to work harder."
"Huh?" Janette didn't understand what Johnny was trying to say.
"To understand you better."
Janette had to admit that she cherished this meal, but she also felt really restrained by it. She wanted to show her best side to Johnny, but it made her feel like she was holding back.
Perhaps, Johnny could sense that she was tiptoeing around him, so after they finished eating, he said to Janette, "From now on, you can act normally at dinner. Since I'm already seated here, I'm not going to leave that easily."
Janette lifted her head and saw Johnny's smile; it was extremely warm.
