The seventeenth day of the apocalypse!
Morning!
A group of people gathered around the dining table, enjoying breakfast.
Today's breakfast included steamed buns, dumplings, pickles, sausages, braised eggs, bread, and more.
Some were pre-packaged ready-to-eat foods, some were freshly made by Bella and Hannah, and some were leftovers from yesterday.
Everyone picked according to their preferences.
Elijah chose steamed buns and sausages.
He broke open a plump, white bun, stuffed it with a sausage, and savored it with delight.
He finished with a bowl of thick, fully-cooked rice porridge, feeling satisfied as the day began.
Lily, sitting opposite Elijah, blushed as she watched him eat with such pleasure, his face full of satisfaction.
She couldn't help but think about last night.
"Did Elijah do it on purpose?" Lily mumbled softly.
Her face flushed, heart racing, she avoided looking at him and focused on her food.
