He caught me staring blankly at the dishes and asked, “Are you not hungry?”

I nodded and pondered for a moment before responding, “Emery brought some candies over and asked me to pass the candies to Summer.”

He nodded and said, “Mm. It’s not good for kids to eat too much of it.”

“Is Aunt Sally okay?” Sally seemed to have calmed down and come to terms with what had happened.

“She’s fine.” Someone came over and toasted to him. He acknowledged with a faint smile and drank to the toast.

He saw me watching him and smiled in return. Then, he took the glass of water in front of him and handed it to me. “Here, drink some water.”

I was taken aback for a moment. Quickly, I raised my hand to take the glass from him. But before I could take it, he said, “Forget it. Don’t force yourself if you don’t want to drink.”

I could see that he wasn’t in a good mood. He had been like that ever since I went down.

“It’s been a long day, and you must be tired. Let’s go home.” I knew that he had been busy for the past few days in the office. Actually, he didn’t have to attend today’s wedding. But he came because of me.

I reached out and held his hand. His fingers were long and slender, slightly cold to the touch.

It was unusual for him to be quiet.
