BXBX NOVEL Chapter 157 157 Shy
'I didn't think Gabriel likes girls but this has shown me'
"Is something wrong with the food?" the girl asked.
Ray and Leia looked at the girl and saw her looking at Gabriel as he was staring at her.
"Gabriel you are staring at her" Ray whispered.
"Huh!" Gabriel snapped out of his gaze and turn away from her immediately, he quickly took his spoon and faced down as if he was eating.
"I hope you like it," the girl said softly and walked away while stealing glances at Gabriel.
"Gabriel, what's wrong with you, why were you staring at her like that?" Leia asked.
"He likes her" Ray whispered.
"What! he likes the chef, wow I've never seen you talk about girls like that, I thought you were shy about girls," Leia said.
"I don't like the chef, lower your voice I don't want her to hear what you guys are saying," Gabriel said.
"I can't wait to tell everyone, she's really pretty, you should talk to her" Leia suggested.
"You can't tell anyone about this, and I can't talk to her, what would I say"
"Tell her that you like her..." Ray shouted.
"Ray what is wrong with you, and Leia don't tell anyone about this" Gabriel sneered.
"Why wouldn't I, I know they would also be surprised," Leia said.
Gabriel stretched his head forward and used a hand sign to tell Leia to come forward.
"If you tell them about this, I will tell everyone that you have feelings for Ray" Gabriel whispered in her ears.
"W-What...I don't have...you can't do that" Leia shouted.
"Oh, I won't don't worry" Gabriel smiled.
"What are you guys talking about, are you talking about me" Ray looked at the both of them.
"Nothing, and it's not about you, don't worry," Gabriel said.
"That makes it shadier, what was it about?" Ray asked.
"We should eat quickly so we can train," Leia told them.
"You are changing the subject Leia, since you guys won't tell me, I'm going to use my mind reading spell and read your minds"
"W-What...you have a mind reading spell"
"Yes and I'm going to read your minds" Ray shook his head.
"You're lying, you don't have any mind reading spells," Gabriel said.
'Wow, so they are mind reading spells in this world, I wish the system would give me a task to complete so I can obtain the spell, that would be so cool'
"So it's a lie, I thought you were telling the truth for a second, that would have been so helpful," Leia said.
"Helpful, what do you want to use it for," Ray said as he stuffed his mouth with meats.
"Many things, firstly we can check what the senior knights are thinking, that would be so cool, then we can use it to make money"
"Isn't that a crime, using magical spells to make money, if you are caught you would be punished" Gabriel said.
"Ray stop stuffing your mouth" Leia shouted.
"I don't know what's wrong with me, ever since I injured my arms, my stomach is always empty"
"I'm done, I'm going to return my plate," Gabriel said and stood up quickly, he arranged his hair and his clothes before Leia stopped him.
"Did you rush the food so you can see the chef?
"What, no...I ate normally and now I'm going to return the plate, and stop calling her chef, she has a name"
"And what is that?"
"Well I'm going to ask her...eventually," Gabriel said and walked away.
"I'm also done, I want to spy on Gabriel and see how he's going to talk to her, my guts is telling me it's going to be funny" Ray smiled.
"Yeah, we should spy on him together," Leia said and both of them stood up.
"Hi, I'm done with the food, thank you," Gabriel said quickly.
"Ohh thanks, I hope you liked it"
"Yes,"
Gabriel turned around and walked outside slowly, then he turned around and wanted to speak to the girl but couldn't, he looked up thinking about what he was going to say.
"What is he doing, what if she turns around" Ray whispered in Leia's ears.
"That's his problem, I didn't know Gabriel was this shy"
"I think he likes her that's why he's shy, he isn't shy around all the girls in the knight academy" Ray whispered.
"He's done thinking, I think he's going to talk to her"
Gabriel took a deep breath and walked silently towards the girl, he stopped at her back and sighed weakly, he turned around to leave but a hand touched him.
"Is something the matter?" the girl asked as she touched Gabriel.
"N-No nothing is wrong...uhmmm...I wanted to ask for your name" Gabriel looked away immediately.
"My name, ohh I'm Cynthia"
"Cynthia... that's a nice name... I'm going to train, bye" Gabriel raced out of the kitchen.
"Why is he like that, is he afraid of me" Cynthia looked at herself and looked around the kitchen.
"He messed that up pretty bad" Ray placed his hand on his head.
"We should leave now before we are caught" Leia crawled back to the dining table and stood up as if she was there the whole time.
The both of them left the kitchen and saw Gabriel a few feet away from the kitchen.
"Hey Gabriel, how did it go, did you talk to her?" Ray asked.
"Yes I did, her name is Cynthia and I think she likes me," Gabriel said proudly.
Leia looked at Gabriel and burst into laughter, she laughed so hard that she sat on the ground.
"Why is she laughing?" Gabriel asked.
"We saw what you did, you messed that up pretty well, and the way you ran out, it was like you were being chased by a high level beast" Ray laughed as he told him.
