A CHILD WITH HER

"I am having dinner," Apple said casually as she took the portion of calamari from Jayden's lap of which there was still half left. "Besides, I didn't eat two servings. I fed you both, remember?" Apple defended herself, but this only made Jayden frown, staring at her intently.

"Well, it's two servings now," he said as Apple scooped up his portion of calamari and pushed aside the empty box she had 'swept clean'.

"Why? Do you mind?" asked Apple with a sharp look on her face. She waited to hear what Jayden would say about this, but the man leaned his body over and kissed her cheek gently instead.

"It's okay you can eat as much as you want, I'll buy you some more later if you still want to eat the calamari," Jayden said in a cheerful voice, but he kept his eyes on Apple and stared intently at how she enjoyed her meal.
