'Here, this is for you.'
'Thank you….'
'I told you, you can speak comfortably.'
'Hic, I'm sorry….'
Airi shrank back as she accepted the breakfast pushed in front of her.
Breakfast time spent sitting together at a table where many people were gathered. It was an awkward situation that Airi was not accustomed to at all.
Scanning her surroundings, Airi cautiously made a resolution.
…Let's eat quickly and escape to somewhere else.
For something she thought up in a rush, it felt like a fairly good idea.
Airi moved her spoon diligently and emptied the bowl.
And by the time Airi finished her meal, Tanya, seeing the empty plate, asked her first.
'Do you want more?'
'Ye, yes?'
Flustered by Tanya's sudden question, Airi nodded.
A new plate filled to the brim was placed in front of Airi.
'You eat well. Another bowl?'
'Ye, yes.'
And once again, a new bowl of food appeared before Airi as she emptied the previous one.
'Perhaps….'
'Gasp….'
