Jamie and I quickly went to go grab our food. We didn't say much, but we both knew how I felt. I felt so uncomfortable. I could feel everyone staring at my back. I didn't like it at all.
"What would you like to eat," Jamie asked. I could see that he was trying to act like everything for me. I appreciated it.
"I'll just take this roll," I answered picking up the smallest roll.
"You can't just have that, Wanda," Jamie stated. "You need to eat more than that."
"I'm not that hungry really," I said truthfully.
"You have to eat something," Jamie stated. "You've barely had anything for a whole week. Ian's suffering because of it. He tries to hide it, but I can see it."
"I'm sorry for how I've been acting, Jamie," I whispered. "I don't mean to; it's just hard on me right now."
"We all can see that," Jamie said. "I'm sorry that I brought it up. I didn't mean to upset you, really."
"It's okay, Jamie," I stated. "My emotions are just on high right now."
"It's okay, Wanda," Jamie said. "But it won't be okay if you don't get more food to eat." I grabbed another roll. "More." I grabbed some of the eggs that were out. "Better, but not there yet." I grabbed some more eggs. "That's good." I rolled my eyes at him. I wonder if he forgot that I was smaller than him and a female. I usually didn't eat this much anyway. I could bring the rest over to Ian if I can't eat it all. I'm sure that he would do that for me. I'd have to sneak it past Jamie though.
"Where are we sitting," I questioned when we faced everyone else. They were all staring at us, mainly me. I would too if I haven't seen one of them for a while.
"At our usual table silly," Jamie stated. Jeb and Jared were the only ones sitting at that table. I was a little surprised because more people when I sat there before. I wasn't going to ask about it though. I didn't want to be rude.
We walked over to the table, and everyone watched us (me) as we went. It was like we were in an exhibit, and they were just waiting us to do something. It also felt like it was the first day that I came here, but this time there are sympathetic looks instead of anger and resentment.
"Hello boys," Jamie said as we both sat down.
"Hello Jamie," Jeb greeted. "Good thing seeing you again, Wanda. I thought I would never see you leave the room, at least not this early."
"Hi Jeb, Jared," I stated.
"How are you doing, Wanda," Trudy asked as she sat down at our table.
"I'm living," I said truthfully.
"And that's a great thing," Jared stated.
"So how did they get you to come down," Jeb questioned.
"Ian and Melanie were arguing, so Wanda and I escaped the room," Jamie explained.
"I can see why you'd want to get out of there," Jared stated. We all nodded.
"Hey Wanda," Paige and Lilly greeted at the same time. They soon sat down at the table.
"Hi," I greeted back.
"We miss having you around in the kitchen, Wanda," Lilly stated.
"I miss you guys too," I said. I had missed being around them. We had a lot of fun conversations together.
"Hey guys," Kyle yelled when he reached our table. He must have not seen me because he looked a little taken aback by me sitting there. "Wanda."
"Hi Kyle," I greeted.
"How have you been," he asked.
"I've been okay," I stated. I was then engulfed in a hug. I soon found out who it was.
"I've missed you so much, Wanda. I couldn't believe that happened to you! I'm so so so sorry! I hope that you are okay. I don't want you to be depressed anymore. Please say you're okay," Sunny gushed.
"I'm fine, Sunny," I said while I put my arms around her. I helped her sit down while she hugged me.
"Girls," I heard Jared sighed. I glared at him.
"I'm going to tell Melanie you said that," I warned.
"You wouldn't dare," he stated.
"Watch me," I said while unlocking myself from Sunny. I was just about to run when I felt someone wrap their arms around me.
"How are you feeling," Ian asked.
"Better now because you're here," I whispered.
"Wanda, you still haven't eaten," Jamie complained.
"I've been talking, unlike you," I snapped.
"Well stop talking and start eating," Jamie stated. I hate a couple bits and stopped. "Ha ha ha. Very funny. Now eat all of it." I did as I was told. Melanie came to sit by Jared while Ian made Jamie scoot over to sit by me. I did tell Melanie about what Jared did, and she didn't take it well in the very least. In the end, she moved Sunny over and sat by me.
"There you go, Jamie," I said as I handed the empty bowl over to him.
"Do you want more," he questioned. I shook my head. I felt stuffed really.
"Oh boy," Jeb whispered suddenly. We all turned to see what he was talking about.
