Cornelia brought a tray with four dishes to Zoey's room.

The room was still occupied by Elvis and Wilma, who hadn't left yet.

Cornelia had to leave by evening, so she quickly explained things to Zoey.

"lI won't have any days off for the next month, and the doc says you can start chewing ssoft stuff. Wilma and I will help you sit

Wilma's eyes darted mischievously as she grabbed his arm.

"Uncle Elvis, I'll keep you company."

With that, she desperately winked at Cornelia.

"Cornelia will feed you, Zoey. I'll cback in a bit."
