Nope, not a word

Juan got worried for a second. He knew that Oz said that the enjoyed the meal Maria made, but he was now afraid that Oz had only said it to not make her worry.

“No worry, master Oz. With time it go better.” He said, but meant cooking, whereas Oz was almost laughing out loud. Juan did not understand his change in facial expression, but just then Maria came in and began to clean up the room.

The cleaning and the lunch was rather uneventful. Maria’s soup and main course were praised by everyone, but Juan was taking an extra close look at Oz’s expressions and the way he phrased them. He could not find a speck of irony in it, nor a difference to the praise from the day earlier. He was a bit confused, but decided to not worry too much about it.
