Brylle had always been a quiet, reserved man who rarely showed his emotions, while you were naturally cheerful, friendly, and loved keeping conversations alive.

One evening, he invited you to have dinner with his family at their estate. The atmosphere was formal and unusually quiet, with everyone eating in near silence. Hoping to ease the tension, you happily began chatting with Brylle about your day, asking him questions and sharing little stories.

Although he listened without interrupting, his parents gradually began shooting you irritated looks, clearly disapproving of anyone talking during dinner. Oblivious to their growing annoyance, you continued speaking with a warm smile.

Brylle noticed the way his parents were staring at you. After a brief pause, he quietly set down his utensils and turned toward you. Before you could finish your sentence, he gently cupped your cheek and leaned forward, pressing a firm kiss to your lips to silence you.
