Norris Moore felt so teased by his playful tone that her tears stopped: "It's... all your fault...! You're such an asshole!"
Because she was choked with sobs, her speech was all stammered.
Trenton Smith chuckled, raised his hand to wipe her tears, and coaxed her, "Alright, alright, I'm the asshole. Isn't it time to eat? Aren't you hungry?"
Norris Moore bit her lip and looked at the smile on his face, which seemed genuinely unconcerned. From the once high and mighty President Smith reduced to the slums, he didn't seem to be particularly emotional about it.
It was perhaps a bit too easy-going!
Didn't he understand how she felt watching him?
Norris Moore felt indignant inside her heart, but thinking of his body, covered with wounds, her nose started to feel sour again. Not wanting to be teased by him, she kept her head down and sulkily shoveled rice into her mouth.
