Chapitre 109: As a family (2)

"Why is everyone so silent? This is the first time we are all sitting together for the last week or so. You should be more excited," Tabitha said, looking around the table at her husband and children.

When she ordered the maids to prepare a quick lunch for them, she thought they would have been excited and eagerly chatting away as they sat here. They weren't and it was more surprising that her daughter was quiet.

"That is exactly why we are silent. It feels awkward to be sitting here," Tobias spoke up.

He couldn't remember the last time he sat with his family since he had either been eating with Hazel after choosing her or he was leaving the palace to go to Edgar's home. Tobias couldn't think of the reason why his father and his sister were being quiet. He didn't think Sofia knew how to be still.
