Food was served, and Arnold didn't share his story while eating.
He might be eager to reveal the news to her, but he didn't want her to starve herself. He was sure that after he broke the message to her, she would be shattered.
The two ate their food harmoniously, with Arnold telling her about the interesting projects he had been up to while avoiding the topic that she truly wanted to hear.
After the meal, Faith was no longer having it.
"Are you going to say it or not? Or did you just come here to freeload?" she was starting to suspect that Arnold was tricking her into spending time with him. Otherwise, why hadn't he said anything?
When Arnold heard that, he knew that she was getting impatient, and she had the right.
He raised his hands in surrender while letting out a chuckle, "Okay, okay! I will talk, but you must promise me to be very calm and listen first before doing anything. Can you do that for me?"
