Twelve years later.

A woman's voice rang out in the Taylor Villa.

"Mashauva, are you done? Why are you taking so long to change? Are you secretly snacking?"

"Nope, I'll be down soon!"

Cassie couldn't help but to roll her eyes when she heard that. Mashauva was supposed to be changing, but indeed she'd gone off snacking again.

After a while, Mashauva finally showed up. She ran down the stairs with a schoolbag on her back. The left side of her mouth was still dusted with biscuit crumbs, while her right cheek was stained with cream.

"Mom!"

At that sight, Cassie helplessly shook her head. Mashauva didn't even bother to wipe her mouth clean after she had eaten.

"Did you snack on something earlier?"

Cassie asked when Mashauva stood before her, "Have you been eating again?" "No, Mommy. Why would I do that?" As soon as Mashauva finished speaking, Cassie reached out to take a biscuit crumb from the left corner of Mashauva's mouth, "What's this, then?"

Noticing the biscuit crumb, Mashauva avoided eye contact before she giggled while squinting her eyes, explaining, "I just had a tiny piece of biscuit, mommy."

"What about this?"

Cassie wiped off the cream from Mashauva's right cheek.

Then, Mashauva pouted and bit her lower lip before she apologized pitifully, "I'm sorry, mommy.

I can't stop my cravings! I'll be more careful next time."

"Ah, you've already eaten anyway." Cassie cleaned up the cream on Mashauva's face before she proceeded to tidy her hair, "You're already sixteen, so why can't you take better care of yourself? Look at those other girls. They're all thin and tall. Don't you want to be like them?"

Mashauva lowered her head to look at herself before she said, blinking her eyes, "However, I can't resist yummy food. To me, food is much more important."
