On the field, the noise was deafening, and the atmosphere was extraordinarily lively.
In the center of the crowd, a few female soldiers were dancing, drawing cheers from the audience around them.
Flossie Wright sat on the grassland.
She was eating two skewered lamb kebabs, but they were tasteless.
She pondered on Sandy Cruz’s so-called "average flavor."
And it indeed was very average.
Just as she finished those two, another pair of skewers was quickly extended to her.
Flossie Wright blinked in surprise, her lips twitching sharply.
"Compensation."
Those light words floated to her ears.
Raising an eyebrow, Flossie Wright looked toward the person beside her.
Her gaze clashed with Sandy Cruz’s just at that moment.
The hazy night air gave his features a halo, but those calm, dark eyes were incredibly clear.
After thinking it over, Flossie Wright accepted them.
But she didn’t rush to eat.
"Mariana Buck is with you in the cooking class."
Flossie Wright’s hint was full of meaning.
"She doesn’t like to eat them," Sandy Cruz responded indifferently.
"Doesn’t like?"
Sandy Cruz nodded.
Flossie Wright was at a loss for words.
No wonder he was so attentive.
After a while, Flossie Wright said to him, "Next time, we’ll eat vegetables."
He paused for a moment, glanced at her, then after some thought, he nodded, "Oh."
Glancing up, Flossie Wright looked at the dancers in the center, and continued to eat the skewered lamb nonchalantly.
Knowing that there would be a barbecue that evening, the cooking class took a break, not preparing any food for them.
They had no choice but to eat at the barbecue.
Flossie Wright came with the intention to fill up, not to watch the various celebration performances.
Naturally, she wanted to eat her fill.
And since Sandy Cruz was an "idle man," she naturally handed the mission over to him.
After all, she had eaten those two "average" skewered lambs for him.
"Flossie, you’ve not finished your skewers yet?"
Approaching with a new skewer, Becca Reyes looked at her with a bit of surprise.
Flossie Wright responded perfunctorily.
"Here, I snatched this for you."
Passing over a skewer of chicken wings, Becca Reyes was beaming with joy, her eyes sparkling with laughter.
Without accepting, Flossie Wright looked at her for a while, then suddenly said, "I’m picky."
Becca Reyes was momentarily stunned.
She had never heard her say that before.
"What do you want to eat then?" Becca Reyes asked patiently.
"Boneless."
Flossie Wright looked at the skewer of chicken wings, her voice calm.
It wasn’t that she was truly picky about food.
It was those chicken wing tips that she simply couldn’t bring herself to eat.
Even if she wanted to pick the bones out, she estimated that in the end, there wouldn’t be enough meat left for even one bite.
It was too much of a hassle to eat.
"..." After a long silence, Becca Reyes looked at her with eyes full of sorrow, "Flossie Wright, you’ve changed."
Flossie Wright glanced at her sideways.
"We went through so much hardship back then, and you never complained. Now, comrade, I’ve gone through hell and back to wrest this spoils of war from the enemy’s grasp, yet you..." Becca Reyes clutched her chest in pain, her voice dropping as she questioned her, "We’ve even eaten grass roots before, and now you’re turning up your nose at these few bones?"
"Come here."
Flossie Wright beckoned her with a hook of her finger.
Blinking, Becca Reyes moved closer, intrigued.
Taking the opportunity to put an arm around her shoulder, Flossie Wright pulled with a little force, bringing her into an embrace.
