Capítulo 54: Fishing Contest

With the power cut out in most places and cell phone towers down, Rayne no longer had access to what was going on around her. She knew that there was chaos, as she had seen glimpses of it as she left the city, but she really had no way of knowing exactly what was happening.

She was currently eating a scrumptious meal made with the homemade dumplings she had made herself.

"Wow, Rayne, these are amazing!" Julian exclaimed, savoring another bite. "These are even better than the fried chicken!"

"Haha, thank you! I wasn't kidding when I said that I liked to cook!" replied Rayne happily. They both ate until they were full.

Julian wanted to get up to do the dishes, but Rayne stood up faster and didn't let him.

"You need to focus on recovering. Don't worry about the dishes, although I appreciate the offer," she smiled.

Julian sat back down, a grateful smile on his face. "Thanks to that ice pack you gave me earlier, the swelling's gone down a lot."
