The Journey

It was the food like he assumed. He told the waiter to leave the trolley on the outside. Afterwards, he opened the door and fetched the food inside. 

To Rhea's surprise, it was her favourite. Still, she was no anymore in the mood to eat it. 

"Have you had breakfast?" she looked at the floor as she asked him with a frown. 

"I hadn't," he replied looking at her. After a while, he spoke again. "Can we eat together?" 

"..." Rhea didn't immediately answer that. "I've sent Flynn's food to his room," Ryan told her.

Rhea looked at him. "Let's eat," she said and pulled out the tray from the trolley.

The two of them ate the food in silence. Rhea felt she was unable to eat more than half of it. Her heart felt heavier with every second passing. At last, she looked at him. "I've eaten enough," she placed the tray back on the trolley. His face immediately changed. He too placed the plate back. 

"You should eat," Rhea said.
