Rosario looked at the used pot and Worcestershire sauce on the kitchen counter on the balcony.

Rosario was a little heartbroken. After all, she had watched Madelyn grow up, so she was like her own child.

“Madelyn, is this all you’re having for lunch?”

Madelyn took a big bite of carne frita and nodded, “I don’t have ingredients at home, so I just made some noodles. But I think I added too much Worcestershire sauce. It’s a little too salty. Also… I think the Worcestershire sauce has gone bad. It tasted a little funny when I ate it!”
