Reborn As An Extra : I'm gonna mess up everything

The warm afternoon light slowly shifted into a golden hue, signaling the early evening. The sky was painted in soft orange and pink shades, giving the city a peaceful and dreamy atmosphere.  

Lortell and Esdeath arrived at a fancy restaurant, where everything looked luxurious and elegant. The moment they stepped inside, the waiters greeted them politely and led them to their reserved seats.  

Unlike a usual restaurant filled with customers, this one was completely empty.  

That was because Lortell had booked the entire restaurant just for them. She wanted to have some private time with Esdeath, without any disturbances.  

Their table was placed beside a large glass wall that was transparent, giving them a beautiful view of the city outside. The golden light of the setting sun reflected off the glass, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere.  

Meanwhile... 

Not too far from the restaurant, behind a large tree, two familiar figures were hiding.  

Maruti and Selene stood there, spying on Lortell and Esdeath’s date.  

Maruti let out a tired sigh. "Huh? Selene, don’t you think it’s getting a little boring?"  

Selene, who had been excited before, now looked disappointed too. She crossed her arms and pouted. "Yeah... Dad is just flirting as usual, but nothing really interesting is happening!"  

Maruti hummed in thought, her eyes narrowing mischievously. "Hmm... What if we do something?"  

Selene’s eyes suddenly lit up as she turned toward Esdeath with a smug expression. "Ooooh! Me! Me! I have an idea!"  

Maruti’s lips curled into a grin. "Go on..."  

Back Inside the Restaurant

Lortell and Esdeath were sitting across from each other, enjoying their meal. The food was absolutely delicious, but the atmosphere had become a little... awkward.  

Neither of them knew what to say.  

So, instead of talking, they just kept chewing their food in silence.  

Esdeath secretly glanced at Lortell, hoping she would say something first. But when their eyes accidentally met, both quickly looked away, pretending to focus on their plates.  

The table was beautifully set, with silver plates, fancy cutlery, and two elegant silver glasses filled with water. A large silver jug was also placed on the table for refilling their drinks. However, it was on Lortell’s side, making it slightly difficult for Esdeath to reach. 

After finishing a bite, Esdeath realized her glass was empty. She hesitated for a moment, then stood up and reached for the jug to pour herself some water.  

Her fingers were just about to grasp the handle... but it was a little too far. She stretched her arm further, her fingertips barely brushing against the jug.  

Lortell noticed her struggle and immediately spoke up. "Wait, I'll do it—"  

But before Lortell could pick up the jug or Esdeath could grab it—  

Selene, from far away, smirked. 

"Trip!" she whispered playfully.  

At that very moment—

Esdeath’s foot suddenly slipped!  

Her balance was completely thrown off, and her hand accidentally smacked against the silver jug.
