Sage pointed at the container. “I have indeed come here to deliver this to you, but that’s because Grandma wants me to make sure that you finish the soup.”

Ian thought that it was the special concoction from before. He felt a headache coming on as he said, “Take it away. I don’t have time to fool around with you.”

When Ian heard Sage’s tone, he thought of something. His expression and gaze darkened. “Dump it.”

Sage felt a little sad. “It’s a sincere gift from Grandma. Are you sure you want to waste it?”

Ian closed his eyes. “Sage, if you keep this up, I don’t mind showing you physically whether I need strengthening or not.”
