Trapped In Her Heart

Chapter 37 - Decoration

Everyone widened their eyes in shock and were mentally cruising Owen for blabbering more than needed. How on earth would they manage to eat an entire bowl of that gruesome dessert which tasted like devil?

Clutching onto her stomach when Ava poked Sebastian arms, he sighed and patted her hand.

Grinning from ear to ear, Ava rubbed her stomach and gave everyone a victorious smile.

Melissa excitedly got up and rushed towards the kitchen. "Ahh I'll go and get the dessert and utensils for us."

After she entered the kitchen, Calvin gritted his teeth at Owen. "You are gonna regret this so bad Owen and you are gonna pay for this too."

"Dude, why would you do something like that? A big bowl? Like seriously?" Having a small bowl of that dessert made his a.s.s sweat, Noah wondered how he would manage to eat a big bowl of it.

Rubbing her stomach, Ellie sighed, "I am pukish already, I don't think so I'll be able to bear with the smell of that custard."

"Okay just bear with it this time okay? I know it's tough but we have to do this for Mel." Noah didn't want Melissa to feel sad or disappointed. He knew how proud and excited she was off her special dessert. Melissa felt extremely happy when everyone praised her dessert and this is why Noah could never convince himself from telling her the truth. So he decided to torture himself than hurt her feelings.

Just then, Melissa brought her special dessert out and placed it on the table. "Let me get the utensils."

"Mel, do you want any help?" Ellie asked.

"I am okay, you can relax."

Looking at the thing he hated the most at the moment, Calvin gritted his teeth, "Huh, look at the piece of devil." Only if he could throw the entire thing out of the building or flush it down somewhere.

Placing his hand on his head, Owen asked, "Am I going crazy or this dessert really has a pair of eyes, nose and mouth?"

Peeping at the custard, June pouted her lips, "I can see it too."

"What the f.u.c.k is that? Decoration?" Owen asked.

"I guess so."

"Hmm, why is this looking more devilish now?" Cupping her cheeks, Ava added, "Oh my God, this dessert is going to haunt me for days."

"Hey Mel, I think you dropped black olives on the dessert." Calvin shouted.

"That isn't a mistake, it's decoration. I did that to make it look more good and beautiful." Melissa said.

"Geez I wish you would've worked on the flavour more than the decoration." Calvin murmured.

Placing the utensils down, Melissa asked, "What did you say?"

"Nothing."

After serving everyone a portion, Melissa sat down beside Noah. "Come on, taste it and tell me how it is."

Forcing themselves to take a bite, everyone faked a smile and m.o.a.n.

"Wow, it's so delicious."

"Hmmm, better than the last time."

"Ahh this is always the best dessert."

Melissa cheekily smiled and said, "Ahh you people praise me too much."

"Hmm, honey can I get some maple syrup to go with this?" Noah asked.

"Yeah sure, I'll go get it."

After Melissa left, Calvin wiped his tongue with the napkin and frowned, "Why do I feel like she is getting worse each time she makes this?"

"Well, at least someone is enjoying it." Pointing at Sebastian who was silently eating Ava's portion after completing his, Owen added, "Hey Seb, why don't you have my share too?"

"Duh uh since your tongue touched that dessert, Sebastian is never going to eat it." Ava said.

Owen sighed and forced another spoonful of custard into his mouth.

After finishing Ava's portion too, Sebastian wiped his mouth and sighed. Rubbing his stomach, he frowned. He ate too much today.

Looking around when he saw Ellie struggling with the dessert, he frowned deeper. Why would she force herself to eat it if she didn't want to?

After taking a bite when Ellie excused her to the washroom, Sebastian thought for a while before exchanging his empty plate with hers.
