21. Watermelon
"What on earth is that?"
Cora turns. Her husband gazes at the strange fruit in her delicate hands.
"It's watermelon," she answers simply. "I asked Mrs. Simons to procure some for me."
"It's not something we usually have at Downton," he says, the frown deepening on his face. "Mama wouldn't approve…"
"Well, I always had it in America." Cora replies, biting her tongue to stop herself from adding that his mother doesn't live at Downton Abbey anymore, so what they do now is none of her concern.
"You're not in America now," Robert says tightly, and Cora rolls her eyes.
A/N: Thankfully, this is the last of the awful prompts. I apologise for this so much. xD
