Chapter 0018

She takes out a black tablecloth that looks like something out of a fine dining restaurant and spreads it on the table. Then she sets the table for one with a linen. napkin and utensils. I sit and she puts the plate with the dome covering it in front

“You have your choice of coffee, tea or soda to drink.”

“Thank you.”

I realize that no one is saying anything. The entire cafeteria is quiet, watching me. No one is even going through the line to get their food for lunch. From somewhere in the back, someone hollers, “Well, let’s see what you got for lunch.”

I pull the cover off the plate and my mouth instantly starts to water. It’s filet. mignon and lobster tail, mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus.
