Hey yall, I just uploaded chapter 27, below is a snippet and link to the episode 
Snippet:
âDid you remember the poundcake?â I ask curiously, eyeing the basket swinging along his grasp in our stroll upstream. He raises a playful brow at me.
âWould you still love me if I didnât, Ava?â he teases, the jest of his answer telling me that he did, in fact, bring the poundcake. My favorite, along with the watercress sandwiches paired with thinly sliced meats. In our venture along the pebble shore, we would soon reach our preferred picnic spot and clink a cheers to our indulge.
âMaybe,â I retort lightly, leaning close to give him a peck on the cheek. The press of my lips gives way to the crack of an innocent smile across his face. I canât help but internally gush at the thought. How quaint! My eyes lingering on his profile, I take notice of the slight upwards tilt of my gaze.
âYouâre getting taller, Nik,â I commend.
âYou think so?â he prods.
âI do,â I answer, marveling at the growing broadness of his shoulder, âand by the looks of things, stronger, too.â
âHmmph,â he retorts, lowering his gaze in an attempt to obscure his blush, âAll the more reason to carry our picnic supplies, I suppose.â
âYouâre so sweet, Nik,â I praise, drawing my fingertips adoringly towards his temple, tucking the stray strand of hair sweeping past his brow. Itâs ever grown longer than the rest, so it goes safely nestled behind his ear. He always forgets, and for the amount of times I've told him otherwise, he must have gone deaf now not to have remembered.
