Lilith's eyes sparkled softly as she caught his reflection in the mirror. She knew exactly what he was thinking, and she smiled inwardly, choosing to ignore him instead.
Ray couldn't stay silent for long. He fidgeted slightly behind her, letting out a sigh as he finally voiced his complaint.
"I came all the way here after such a long time," he muttered, his voice softly filled with disappointment. "And Miss Mystery hasn't even given me a kiss—let alone said she missed me!"
His voice was purposefully exaggerated, layered thick with playful sadness, hoping to coax some attention from Lilith. He glanced at her reflection again, hoping to catch some sympathy.
Lilith paused, her slender fingers delicately patting moisturizer onto her smooth skin. Her lips twitched into a gentle, amused smile at his adorable complaint, though she still didn't turn around. Instead, she continued her skincare slowly, enjoying the slight torment she was causing him.
