Malcolm suppressed the uneasiness within him and retrieved spaghetti bolognese from the food flask. He smiled and said, “Happy birthday, Tabby.”

Alaric smiled and asked, “Is it good?”

Malcolm suddenly looked over nervously.

Tabitha nodded and said, “It’s delicious.”

“Malcolm made it himself,” Alaric said happily. “He learned to make it from the cook before dawn. He wasted dozens of plates of spaghetti before finally making it edible.”

Tabitha’s calm eyes reflected emotion upon hearing it, but she quickly regained her composure.

Alaric then recounted what he had seen with a gleeful smile.
