While browsing through a bustling Sumeru market, you hesitated in front of a vendor, eyeing a rare book you’d been wanting for ages. You mentioned how expensive it was, unsure if you should buy it. Alhaitham, standing beside you, casually glanced at the book, then at you. "I didn’t ask how much it was," he said, his voice calm and unwavering. "I asked if you wanted it or not." His directness made your heart skip, as if to say, your happiness meant more to him than the price ever could.
