367 It did not make sense at all (2/2)

”Err… I need to check,” she replied. Her mind was blank and she could not think right now. Her stomach was growling for food.

Where the heck was her food?

”Are you… preparing to sleep now?” he asked when he did not hear her voice anymore.

She gulped. She was not doing that even though her body was screaming for her to lie down on the bed and go to sleep. She was too hungry to do just that. Waking up with an empty stomach was pure torture and she definitely hated that. She always had a bad mood when she woke up hungry.

”Hmm…” she was scared if she used words to answer, he could guess she was lying through gritted teeth. Why was he still not saying good night and goodbye?

”Will… will you dream about me tonight?” he asked hopingly.

She let out a sigh. Why would he ask this question? How old was he? He was being childish and clinging.

And she felt weird.

”J…” she started before yawned loudly. It was not a fake. She really did feel sleepy. ”I'm so sleepy. Can we talk tomorrow?”

”…” He was hurt by this but he did feel how exhausted her voice was. He closed his eyes and sighed. He shouldn't be too selfish and should let her have her rest. He did not want to be accused of torturing his own love.

”Goodbye, my love. Sweet dream. Good night,” he said finally, unwilling to end the call but he did not want her to be angry at him.

”Good night,” she replied and tapped the button to end the call before him. Then, she dropped the phone onto the bed and went out.

Had her food arrived?

When she reached the living room, she saw Mika holding a plastic bag. Ryn's eyes widened and her lips curled into a huge smile.

Finally, she could eat her supper.

”Are you done talking with Jeremy?” Mika asked as she brought the food to the kitchen. She knew Ryn was following her.

”Hmm…” Ryn took a huge bowl to put her fried noodle. She nodded her approval when seeing the lack of vegetables in her food.

”Oh, I wish I have eggs,” she murmured sadly.

Mika's brow twitched at the remark. This best friend of hers did not even care about her weight. Not only she chose to eat so late at night, she even chose fried noodles with so much meat. And do not let her start with the vegetables. Was it so hard eating greens? Why would Ryn take vegetables as her worst enemy? It did not make sense at all.

”It's already too much to eat for supper, Ryn. Aren't you worried you will get stomachache eating too much?” Mika asked.

”Fine,” Ryn mumbled. She took a pair of chopsticks to eat her noodle. She did not make her drink because Mika was already pouring a glass of water for her. Both went to the dining table.

”Are you going to be alright watching me eating? Do you want some?” Ryn asked when Mika took the seat facing her. She felt weird eating on her own with Mika watching her.

Mika shivered to see the mountain of meat on top. Ryn managed to find all the meat and piled them on top. A talent but a scary one to see by a dieter. Luckily her stomach already full or she would fall into the trap and lose herself in the fattening food.

”No. No need. You can eat it all,” Mika said hurriedly. She would not fall for that. Her determination and motivation to keep hold onto her diet was still strong. Her wedding was getting closer and she did not want not to fit into her beautiful wedding dress and the special dress for her wedding reception. She also wanted to look her best in her wedding pictures. Her grandmother already told her that the media would cover her wedding so she needed to stay fit for that special day.

And most importantly, she did not want Jason to see her belly or thigh chubby during their wedding night. She already bought a gorgeous nightgown and knew only a slim and fit her could wear it prettily. And Jason deserved it for being so patient for these past years.

Ryn shrugged. She was too hungry to care. Without waiting anymore, she dug into the food and enjoyed the oily and fattening food.
