The Talk

I was eating like I hadn't eaten in days, which I hadn't, but that also meant that I probably resembled a wild animal.

Edris had more than given me a piece of his mind, and I had nothing to do but listen as I dug into the food he'd made, very meat heavy because according to him I had to follow doctor's orders and up my iron levels.

His ire died down considerably when I asked for seconds, and he was nearly over the moon when I handed over my plate for thirds with a piece of buttered baguette in my mouth. The cassoulet had been heavenly and I felt better already.

Thanking Edris for the food, I stood up and left my grumbling cook behind to catch up on some work.

I still didn't know what I was going to do with this growing foetus, but I decided to take it a day at a time.

One thing was for certain though, Marco couldn't know.
