"What is there to be nervous of?"
Eiswein questions
"Probably because she feels guilty,"
Pétillant answers
With a sigh
Wine only gives a small awkward laugh in reply
"Listen here,"
Pétillant steps closer to Wine
And whispers
"If you are serious about Eiswein,
Don't half-heartedly challenge me.
I won't show you mercy,"
Wine stops breathing
Pétillant turns to Eiswein with a smile
"May I tag along too?"
Eiswein glances at Wine,
Who does not notice it,
And gives an answer
"We are on our way to lunch.
Do you mind?"
"Of course not!"
Pétillant smiles brightly
It is as if
Pétillant has taken Wine's position
To stand beside Eiswein now
