The Silent Treatment

Lunch time…

Jorge ate quickly, almost swallowing his food without chewing because of the horrifying silence inside Liam's pantry room. He finally stood up in the middle of his lunch since he did not want to get indigestion with the way he ate.

"I forgot that I have an urgent matter. I will go first and finish my food later in my office," Jorge said before leaving them alone with his food. The two of them did not even bother to answer him.

After Jorge left, Liam also felt gloomy. With lost appetite, he stood up, leaving his food unfinished and said, "I'm full already. You finish your lunch. I am going to rest in my private room for a while."

Lana nodded and bit her bottom lip as Liam walked out of the pantry first.
