When Calix brought up the matter during breakfast, Leslie’s eyes shone brightly like two stars, prompting him to laugh. Her excitement was plainly obvious.

Calix was glad to see Leslie’s expression more vibrant than usual. Her eyes lit up in joy as she enjoyed watching the cityscape at nighttime. The glimmering moonlight gently cast a gleam on her smiling countenance.
Seeing her glowing with happiness reminded him of the times they spent exploring Rome together, including during their dance under the moonlight.
