Inside the warm car, Alexis removed her wool overcoat, revealing a black wool dress inside.
She glanced up at him and corrected, “Oh, he’s actually 33.
Not much younger than me.
Leonel remained silent, turning to gaze out the window.
From Alexis‘ perspective, the profile of his face-the sharp jawline and pronounced nose-was clearly visible,

Alexis retrieved a thermos from the compartment and unscrewed the Lid to take a sip.
Leonel caught a glimpse and remarked with a hint of annoyance, “That's my cup.
Yours is the light pink one.

She paused, looking down at the thermos in her hands, and replied, “It’s chicken soup.
Leonel, you've really started taking care of yourself.

Leonel trembled slightly.
He turned to speak to her, but she had already straightened up and was typing a message.
