[Light doesn't answer, waiting instead for Watari to go about whatever it was he was going to do. When the sweet is presented to Ryuuzaki, Light doesn't even connect the two at first since Watari is always presenting sweets to him. It's only when the second is offered up to him that he looks at the elderly man and then to the other man.
This was his plan? Admittedly, cold treats were known to ease a swollen, scratchy throat the same way ice packs relieved swelling in other areas. Light's own voice was contorted more from congestion than throat pain, though it was a bit scratchy from the sneezing at this point.
It isn't even that Light dislikes sweets. He's not their biggest fan, but he eats them occasionally - when he went on the rare date, it wasn't rare for the girl to want something sweet - and even enjoyed a bit of the sweet taste to combat the taste of tea.
But they both know this won't help a cold. At the very best, it would sooth a symptom he barely had.
Also without word, he reaches over to accept the treat. That silence is broken once he's retracted his hand.]
