At the breakfast table, Marissa could sense how quiet Rafael was. He didn't get proper sleep last night and whenever she woke up, she would find him looking up at the ceiling, deep in his thoughts.
Something was bothering him and Marissa did know what it was. She needed him to walk this path alone.
"Daddy! I can't eat this spinach piece," Abigail complained to the man who might be sitting there at the table but was eating his breakfast absentmindedly.
"Yeah, Daddy," Ariel made a pout, "Spinach sucks!"
"Ariel!" Marissa gave her a stern look with that mommy stare, "Spinach is healthy."
They got busy with the eating but Abi who knew how to take advantage of the situation was still pushing Spinach pieces on the edge of the plate.
Ever since her surgery, she could see how Mommy and Daddy were giving her princess treatment and now her little mind could think of some more demands that she could put forth.
