Skylar broke out in laughter. “It’s tomato soup with croutons.”

Judging from Joe’s reaction, he probably hadn’t had such a simple meal before. Then again, that made

sense since people would cook and offer Joe all of the delicacies in the world if he wanted to eat.

“Croutons?” Joe wondered out loud as he set his bowl on the dining table.

He hadn’t tried it yet because the soup was still hot. Plus, he was picky with food and somewhat reluctant to put such mushy food into his mouth.

Meanwhile, Skylar ate spoonfuls after spoonfuls of it. The simple ingredients didn’t stop the soup from tasting good.

Joe eventually picked up his spoon after seeing Skylar eat several mouthfuls in a row. With a reluctant frown, he took the tiniest sip. Then, he ate another spoonful and another.

It wasn’t long before he headed to the kitchen and came out with another bowl of soup.
