SORRY FOR THE DELAY!
Tanya arched an eyebrow at the rather forward Toli. She resisted the urge to respond to Charlie's remark about her food. She was extremely sensitive to remarks about her cooking and she knew damn well the corn was more than just slightly edible. Her hands clenched into fists and she counted in her head, reminding herself that this was not the moment to lose her cool.
"Glad you enjoy it," she remarked dryly. Her teeth clamped down on her tongue to prevent anything more from coming out. She quickly turned her attention to Toli to change the subject.
"My "story"? I don't believe I have much of a story." It wasn't the brunettes business anyway.
She nodded at Lily. She would share a variation of it, but not the exact recipe. That was hers to keep. But Lily didn't have to know that.
