Chapter 16: Dinner is Served

_Noah’s Pov_

As we arrived at the dinner table, food was already served in three plates with Four Cousins right in the middle of the table. Was my mom trying to get us drunk?

“Sit!” my mother ushered. I removed the chair from the spot to let Zaria sit while I returned it back to my own seat.

Once I was seated, I grabbed my special glasses, which were set aside specifically for drinks like Four Cousins. You got to treat this drink with so much respect.

“I was about telling you to go get some glasses,” my mother began. I glared at her suspiciously and she smiled. She sat and we began to eat.

A few minutes into eating, while I was getting the last pasta into my mouth, I glanced at Zaria and noticed she was only halfway through her food.

Oh no, you just exposed yourself.

I sighed... I hope she does not mind.

I looked at my mom to notice she was sipping her drink already. I glanced at her plate to see it empty.

At least I was not the only one on this boat.
