In the dining table

At twilight, the family was at the dining table having their dinner before leaving for their rooms and allowing sleep to rule over them.

One can only imagine that this family was at peace, but one can't tell if it was indeed in peace. Eating dinner together means unity in a family, but in this case, it was different.

Aidan never raised his head since the very moment he buried his gaze on the food before him. Although he could feel his wive's eyes on him, he never cared and continued eating.

However, Ruby wasn't happy seeing him in this condition, but there was nothing she could do about it. He chose it, and he has to bear with it until the day he is granted freedom.

Unfortunately, Hailey was eager for Aidan to finish eating, so they can go upstairs and have fun on the bed.

The dining room was completely silent, like a graveyard. One can't tell whether these people sitting around the table are breathing or not.
