The middle-aged woman brought the dishes out, not knowing whether she should serve the food or not. The man saw her and frowned. "Knock it off. The dishes are here."
The woman stopped talking and sat in her chair sobbing.
The man stared at the food without saying a word.
After sized up the two of them, the middle-aged woman put down her plate and turned around to leave.
A moment later, the man shouted, "Rice! Double portions, no, three portions!"
The middle-aged woman filled three bowls of rice, holding one in her each hand, and the third one between her wrists. As she approached the table, the man and woman stood up to pick up the rice at the same time.
The middle-aged woman hesitated for a while. But before she could retract her hand, the young couple had griped onto both of her hands, and then they handcuffed her wrist.
