Chapter 86 - 86

Ellie saw food popped into existence in front of her. She looked at it longingly. As with anything that was Wong made, it was a delicious fried dumpling food platter with everything she should have been dying to eat at this moment. It was comfort food she would have made herself, if she had been hosting this gathering at her apartment, instead of at her husband's home. All of her friends ate quickly until there was none left for her. They asked her if she wanted some but Ellie shook her head. Even though her mouth wanted to savor the plate, her stomach felt oddly full such that she felt strange. The previous night she had been positively ravenous.
