She squeezed a bright smile at her brothers and said in a breezy manner, “I’m hungry. Let’s go.”

When they came downstairs, Baby Zetty sat on the dining chair silently. She did not greet her parents nor talk to her sisters. She merely picked up her cutleries and began stuffing herself with food. Angeline looked at her crestfallen daughter. She had never seen Baby Zetty so quiet, nor seen her gorging on food without a single care for her image before. That made Angeline sad and disheartened. When Baby Zetty was done with her food, she helped herself to a second serving and stuffed her mouth with more food as if her stomach was a bottomless pit that could never be satiated.

Everyone looked at her with a stunned gaze…

Was she using food to cope with grief and anger?

When Baby Zetty had helped herself to the fourth serving, Angeline was afraid that she would become sick from being too full and pressed her hands, saying earnestly, “Stop eating, Zetty. Overeating is not good for your health.”

Baby Zetty looked at Mommy with a rueful gaze and put down her utensils silently.

Angeline glared bitterly at Jay, her beautiful and passionate eyes giving a clear message. She was seemingly resentful and angry at him.
