Will You Tell Me

Lina ignored the mischievous Kaden. She lifted her chopsticks and began to eat the food in peace. She nearly let out a moan at how delicious and fresh the fish tasted. She wasn't able to eat this yesterday, but could savor it all for herself today.

"What was your favorite fish from yesterday's selection?" Kaden asked in a mellow voice. He leaned against the table and watched her consume what he bought for her.

Lina paused mid-chew. She raised her head. 

Kaden stared at her expectantly. When she didn't say anything, his lips turned into a thin line. He hummed, waiting for a response.

"I didn't eat yesterday's food…" Lina trailed off, swallowing her mouthful. 

"Did your mother have something to do with it?" Kaden seethed, his eyes turning ballistic. 

"Yes," Lina admitted.

"Should I kill her?"

Lina stared at him blankly, obviously not amused.
