The group gathered around a cozy dining table for breakfast. Julia, with some help from Alicia, had prepared a simple breakfast. Once she set the last dish down, everyone started to eat. The breakfast was pretty good, much better than the previous night's dinner.
"This soup is delicious!!!" Lilith complimented as she enjoyed a spoonful of the vegetable soup Julia had made.
"Riya's magic helped a lot. She used her powers to grow these fresh veggies!" Julia gave credit to Riya. After all, they did not have any vegetables with them. Riya had used her special abilities to make fresh vegetables grow in the desert sand and all Julia had to do was pick them.
Aditya, who had been quietly eating, suddenly paused. He was about to eat a piece of fried fish with his chopsticks when he stopped. The chopsticks were just inches from his mouth, frozen in place.
"Aditya, what's wrong?" Alicia noticed his sudden change and asked with concern.
