The peculiar atmosphere continued to hang over the team as Dylan's attention gravitated noticeably towards Emma. Myra, typically unperturbed, appeared indifferent to the shift, creating a palpable distance between her and Dylan as the days unfolded.
During a routine meal, Myra returned from the general's office with a tub of ice cream, triggering a comment from Emma about its perceived lack of nutritional value. Ashley, always quick with a witty remark, responded, "You just defined Myra." Laughter filled the air, though Emma remained unamused.
Asserting her role as a bodyguard, Emma declared, "I can't allow you to eat that."
Myra, unyielding, retorted, "You're my bodyguard, not my nanny."
Dylan, attempting to ease the tension, interjected, "Relax, she didn't mean any harm."
Myra chose to ignore him, turning her attention to Thomas. "Do you want to have some?" she asked, to which Thomas eagerly nodded.
