The arcade turned out to be a blast as I discovered my talent for arcade games, winning consistently with everyone cheering me on—except Rex, of course. Take that, Rex! Your sour mood won't dampen my joy.
After winning numerous prizes, we headed to the restaurant. However, my mood plummeted there. Bella monopolized Rex's attention by feeding him from her plate with endless excuses, leaving me to sulk while Jason fussed over me.
"You haven't touched your meal yet," Jason observed. "You should try this. It's delicious," he added, picking up whatever was on his plate and placing it on mine.
I remained sullen, silently observing Rex and Bella. Rex often declined Bella's attempts to feed him, but Bella's persistent nature made it hard for him to refuse.
"Here," Jason insisted, playfully pushing a bite into my mouth.
