It seemed that was his favourite fruit because he certainly enjoyed taking abnormally big bites into it while he pierced you with his gaze. I looked away from him, distracting myself with the scene of Aya and Abe in front of me. “You'll feed me, won't you, Abe?” she pressed, not giving him room to breathe as she leaned towards him. He looked like he could have had a heart attack and actually dropped dead there. Sweat broke out from his palms and forehead.

“Hello, Anabela,” she turned and frowned when she saw the big man behind her with a basket of apples. Her brown eyes were averting their gaze with an embarrassed expression, and her lower lip was caught between her teeth. She could notice a slight blush on the caramel-colored skin that caused her much tenderness. But she didn't understand his interest in her and it made her uncomfortable. Like many of the workers at the estate, Samuel was just an acquaintance, a person with whom she could not even imagine a close relationship.

Matagal itong napatitig saakin maya maya pa ay napatango tango ito. "Ah, ganun po ba señorita? Ngayon ay naiintindihan na kita. May mga tao talagang bawal sa kanila ang mga gulay o kaya naman ay prutas. Hindi ko naman alam na isa ka pala doon. Pasensiya ka na at nahusgahan kita ng hindi mo nalalaman. Akala ko kasi maarte ka lang sa mga pagkain dahil nga sa lumaki ka sa marangyang pamumuhay. Patawarin mo ako señorita." Sinserong sambit ni manang habang mababanaag ang pangamba sa mga mata nito. Mahina akong napatawa para mawala ang pangamba niya.

My eyes lit up, and I plucked a grape, wiping it on my clothes before popping it into my mouth. So sweet. Nearby stood a tall tree with wooden benches and a table built around its trunk. I walked toward it and sat down, with Felly and Ria following. I lifted Abby and placed her gently on the table. A woman approached us and handed over a basket of assorted fruits. “Thank you,” Felly told her, and the woman left. “Luna,” Felly said softly, pushing the basket toward me. I smiled and took a piece. Silence stretched between us—thick, uneasy. I could feel Ria and Felly’s nerves like shifting air around us.

He was in the middle of their stairs with his traveling bag in his hand. “What? There are other coolers?” “Yes, Mom!” Then came Mang Dado again with a big Coleman Cooler on his right shoulder. Excitedly, Carolina opened the second cooler, and once again her eyes grew big when she saw different types of fruits inside. There are dragon fruits, mango, soursop, and bananas. Then the third cooler made Carolina so excited to prepare her vegetable salad with sliced mango on the side. She also cooked her favorite chili-buttered shrimp. Carolina made it a point to say thank you to Damian Lincuja by sending him a text message, to which he replied immediately.

He brought the basket he’d been holding onto and set it down on the table for the Goddess Queen to see. The basket made with wooden weaves was filled with multiple green-colored fruits. The fruit was called Nori. It was a seasonal fruit and it would only grow around this time of the year in Ehrlich’s soil. Even then, the fruit only grew in the warmest areas down south. Its yield was drastically low, so it was quite difficult to find them in numbers. “It’s been a long time since I saw this!” Alicia looked at the basket with genuine excitement. For the past six years, the time she spent in Coulson, she had never gotten the chance to eat her favorite fruit.

“Oh my, Miura-san. This is a lot. I... I can’t possibly accept this for free.” The basket was filled with two bundles of green mustard greens, more than five fresh carrots still covered in red soil, corn in husks, and vibrant red tomatoes. There was a lot. “Eeee… It’s just from my garden behind the house. I was cleaning it up and remembered you need to eat lots of healthy food. It’s really healthy, and I’m sure you’ll recover quickly,” Miura insisted. Without waiting for Akiko to invite her in, she took off her sandals and brought the basket into the kitchen.

They loved her for her good heart. As she approached the park, she took a moment to investigate the contents in the baskets. Apples, bananas, grapes, cherries... guessing to herself she made out that Jen did not know what fruits the prince would prefer so she put together whatever she could find. Shinja did not know either so she went with whatever Jen had come up with.

Within just a brief moment, he managed to pluck out more than 10 Realm Fruits. Then, the man, with his fastest speed, hurried back to where the other White Lotus gene martial artists were. All of them let out a long breath and wiped off the cold sweat on their foreheads. The head of the gang took a glimpse at the Realm Fruits that were in the man’s cloth bag. The Realm Fruits were terrifying as each one of them had the look of a human's face. Additionally, those faces carried malicious expressions on them. He was so fearful that he retrieved his gaze.

I tense up, every survival instinct I've honed over years screaming at me even through the fog of medication and exhaustion. Mum notices and places a protective hand on Nora's back. My daughter is still curled against my chest, playing with the edge of my hospital gown. "Come in," I say, my voice hoarse. The door opens. A man in his early thirties walks in holding a large wicker basket filled with neatly arranged fruit, including apples, oranges, grapes, and even a small pineapple.
