Gary lowered his head and ate. He ate his food one bite at a time, but he could not enjoy the taste of the food at all. He was only eating to survive.
Celeste could not bear to see him eat so mindlessly. She wanted to speak, but the words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat and she could not force herself to say anything.
She felt a little tired too, she did not know what to do.
She was just relieved that he was eating properly.
The two of them finished eating in silence, and Gary sent Celeste to their room to rest.
When Celeste was back, she started to read. Gary seemed to be doing something on his computer. The two of them were busy with their own business. Ever since Gary returned to the room, he never spoke. He was fully occupied on his computer, seemingly extremely busy with personal affairs.
Celeste did not disturb him either. As she read, she would occasionally raise her head to look up at Gary.
