Cassius and Lucien exchanged tense glances, both knowing they had to eat the food eventually.
With a resigned sigh, Cassius mustered his courage and scooped up some of the sunny-side-up eggs.
As he brought the forkful of eggs to his mouth, the tantalizing aroma teased his senses. It had been less than two months since they arrived in Euclair village, and it was the first time he had eaten eggs in a while.
Bracing himself, Cassius took a bite, and instantly, he was transported to heaven. The runny yolk melted in his mouth, the perfect blend of salt and pepper dancing on his taste buds.
Realizing he needed more, Cassius scooped up another and turned to Lucien. "What are you staring at? Eat your mother's food, you brat!" he grumbled, though there was a hint of warmth in his tone.
Lucien looks around as everyone eats like a pig, 'It should be fine, right? Everyone seemed happy.'
