With president Lee having revealed his jest, Mina felt confident about tasting a bite of her own food. She was delighted when the flavor was just as she expected it to be. She missed her parents terribly, and the mixture that she put together today, was inspired by her mother. No matter how little money they had, her mom was always able to pull together a decent meal for her family and, as the designated 'kitchen helper,' Mina learned a lot from her. Mina scanned the faces at the table and locked eyes with Zane.
"Why did you say you were single again?" He joked and Mina gave him a cheeky smile.
"I may not be single for much longer," she quipped.
Mina was startled by the sound of President Lee choking. Not knowing what she should do, she questioned him.
"Are you allergic to anything?" she asked, as she handed him a glass of water. Zane was tickled pink on the opposite side of Mina.
