Your Father Is Here

"You insolent....,"

"Can you guys stop fighting at the dining table?" Mrs Avans cold voice made everyone readjust. Although her words sounded like a suggestion the two sisters knew this wasn't a suggestion but an order.

"A visitor is here, so let's at least pretend to be a loving family for his sake, hmmm," Mrs Avans added and surprisingly no one talked after she finished talking.

After Mrs Avans warning, they all ate in peace. During the meal the weird thing everyone noticed about Jasmine attitude was how she repeatedly selected food. She even refused to eat some side dishes which are known to be her favourite.

"Jasmine, are you ill?" Elizabeth asked in a worried tone after Jasmine announced that she was done eating.

"I am fine. I just feel a little sick in the stomach. I guess that is why my body is selecting food now," Jasmine said with a smile. None at the table could guess whether or not she was telling the truth.
