Julia is rather hungry.
I'm glad her appetite came back. After she didn't pay any attention to her cup of cocoa, I was worrying. Yet, she's now eating like normal.
She doesn't even hide her pleasure at the sweet taste of the cake.
I bought a whole cake after she fell asleep. It's raining, so no one asked me how I came out during the day.
And my girl deserved it after everything she's been through.
«You're the best,» she murmurs while cutting herself another slice.
She notices I haven't touched mine yet, and she tilts her head.
«Aren't you eating? You should at least try it: it's delicious...» she starts.
I grab her by the waist and drag her on my lap. I caress her lower lip with my thumb until she opens her mouth and kisses me on her own.
Her usual taste is now sweeter, thanks to what she ate a second ago.
«You're right,» I say when we're done. «Delicious.»
