“Up you go!” Elgin yanked at his tie and barked out loud.

Letitia’s eyes snapped open when she heard his voice. She sat up instantly. “You, you’re back…”

He stared at her with a heavy gaze, silent as a grave.

“What’s up?” She looked around and explained, “I purposely slept in the corner and didn’t block the door!”

“Did you eat the soup?”

Letitia paused. “What?”

“The soup!”

“Nope. She shook her head “Do I have to?”

Elgin squinted “What do you think?”

Letitia picked herself up off the floor as she had no choice. “I’ll go now.”

She had no idea what had gotten into him, insisting she eat Phedra’s soup.

It was in the middle of the night. How could she fall asleep after chugging that down?

In the dining room, Letitia held the spoon, staring down the clam chowder on the plate.

Elgin stood by, keeping an eagle eye on her.

She forced spoonfuls into her mouth only to taste a clam that was hard to swallow.

After struggling through the half, Letitia couldn’t eat it anymore. “Can I stop now?”

“What do you think?”

“I.” She barely got a word out when her stomach churned.

Clamping her hand over her mouth, Letitia bolted for the bathroom. She hurled her guts out, not just the soup but even
