Looking at Shini, unsure as to what he was thinking, Joseph was about to speak but then felt as the man hugged him, startling him and widening his eyes in fear before holding his breath and just relaxing as much as he possibly could.
As he spoke of the bathroom and making the hot chocolate, Joseph nodded and moved back a bit for some room before looking at the kitchen nearby and sighing. “I…don’t eat breakfast.” he admitted softly, but then looked up at Shini and furrowed his eyebrows. “That sounds good. Okay I’ll just…get dressed. Thanks again.” he said while walking towards the stairs, wanting to get changed as soon as possible so he wouldn’t feel so uncomfortable.
