Emma knew that her boyfriend was angry, sad and angry about her misconduct, not regarding her inability to control her appetite for his mother's tuna casserole, but for the inability to have told his brother away; she shouldn't have let the older guy hold her hands. She knew she needed to apologise. But that would be later. She thought, feeling a bit awkward and jittery under his gaze.
"Back to earth, Emma!" Maya screamed, causing her to shift her attention from her boyfriend who was looking both sullen and angry at the same time, to the other duo in the room. She could see that even Anthony was looking at her weirdly, well they still had an unfinished discussion, and Maya, always the free-spirited one, was trying to lighten the tension in the room.
"What are you thinking about foodie?" Maya asked her, as she handed over the plate of the last surviving portion of the tuna casserole to her with a wink.
