Arshile was happy that the girl looked a bit more upbeat than before. Of course, that must have been really hard on her, but his chest swelled with... pride? happiness? He wasn’t sure, but he assumed it would mostly be relief from knowing she would be in good hands.
“Thank you, although it’s not mine yet.” He explained. “It’s going to be mine when I finally become the boss.” Arshile smiled and he thanked the server as well. “We have today a very light dish, we didn’t know what could suit your taste or if you’d be alright to eat something too heavy, so we decided on a very light menu with little fat. I hope that’s fine for you.” His eyes looked curiously at her. “Now, would you like to tell me how you ended up there?”
