25 Dinner And A Little Episode (1/2)

Six in the evening…

Dinner is currently being served in a long rectangular table just a few meters away from the front of the Main Hall with the entire stronghold blanketed in darkness and the only places with lights are where the few torches are placed which were made by Tom and Henry.

Of course, they have stored electricity that came from the solar panels that Leo brought two days ago but Leo quoted ”We should only use the electricity stored for inside the two house and the Main Hall so we don't need torches to bring light within” is what he told them which they agreed as they realised that it would be too much of a hassle to navigate their way inside the residence, worst they might even accidentally set it on fire. After all, the buildings are mostly made from wood.

On the long table, dinner is served with steaming white rice served in three huge pots, a salad but mostly meat dishes that were frozen meats that they found in a grocery store which got ”cleaned” by Leo of all of its products.

”Come on, let's eat!” Rachel said as she sat down beside Leo and she even started serving food for Leo on his plate. The others also started eating and discuss something amongst themselves.

”Mom, I can do it myself” Leo warily smiled as he looked at his mother.

”No, you should a lot. I'm sure you guys never had any proper meals back there” Rachel said as she filled his plate full before getting food for herself.

Leo smiled embarrassed as the only proper meal they had was the lunch prepared by Amanda's mom before they departed even the roasted lion meat can't be called proper.

On the left side of Leo was Amanda, Michelle from his left are Rachel, Henry and then Aria with the others occupying the rest.

Then Leo remembered something and he acted like he was taking something from his back but he was actually accessing his Inventory and took out the Colt M1911 and handed it to Rachel ”Here mom, take this for your protection”

Rachel smiled and didn't even asked where it came from and just took it ”Thanks” she even expertly inspected it and nodded approvingly as she tucked it on her back.

”Dad” Leo called out.

”What?” Henry responded but he didn't even glanced at him as he just continued eating his meal.

”Give me Tommy back”

”What? Why?” this time Henry looked at him with a raised eyebrow.

”Give it back and I'll give you something else”

”No”

”What do you mean, no?”

”You gave it to me and I quite like it”

”What do you mean I gave it? I only lent it you”

”It's the same”
