THE INN 2

Magdalene froze. Her eyes wide and terrified. She couldn't believe what Lucas was saying. She really wished it was all a joke on his side.

"You said... she's dead?" She asked Lucas with horror written all over her face.

"Eat Magdalene" He told her.

She didn't even pick the spoon up or even look at the meal. Did it mean that the lady was a mommy. How could she eat when a dead person was under the same roof with her and even served her food.

Her fingers trembled and her mind was hazed, of course she could no longer eat. She stared blankly to space wondering how a dead person was able to walk and do those things.

Lucas ate without a single care in the world. He could have comforted her or not tell her the truth but he didn't. He wanted her to come in terms with things and saw how the world was. If she couldn't handle herself or stay strong then she wasn't ready to face what the world had to offer.
