"Munch... Munch...."
I sat in silence while Delilah ate her bar beside me. From time to time, a few cadets would stop by to look at her before leaving.
At first, it was fine, but it started to get worse as more cadets appeared.
Enough to arouse a reaction from Delilah who stopped eating.
"I'm getting a lot of stares."
".....I told you so."
"It's fine."
Delilah replied nonchalantly.
Then, glancing at me, she replied,
"I've got you, no?"
"Me?"
What does that even mean?
".....Take a look around."
I did as she asked.
That was when I realized it. The moment my head turned, so would the heads of all the other cadets around.
'This...'
I didn't know how to react.
Was I that scary?
"See? I don't have to worry."
Sticking her little fingers into the wrapper to grab all the crumbs, Delilah dipped her finger in her mouth.
