"Mom! I can hire a cleaner for that! You don't have to do it." Layla dragged Avery back to the couch. "Have you two eaten? We can eat together if you haven't!" "We've already eaten." Avery finally noticed that Layla seemed to have lost weight. "Layla, have you gotten thinner? Why do you look so weak?" Elliot turned to study Layla's face and immediately started to worry as well. "Have you been eating properly? How are you sleeping?" He asked.
Panicking, Layla felt extremely guilty when she saw the worried looks on her parents' faces.

"Why don't youe hfor a few days? You can't cook for yourself in this state? You can just order delivery!" Avery said as she helped Layla out of the apron.
Layla had never set foot into the kitchen, and Avery's heart ached at the thought that Layla had to cook for herself despite feeling ill after moving out.
"Mom, I'm just on my period. I'm not sick! I might look weak, but I'm perfectly fine!" To prove her words, Layla stood from the couch. "Look! I'm fine!" "You just won'te home, right?" Avery knew that Layla was stubborn and decided against forcing her.
"I just want to stay in bed for the next few days. I don't feel like moving at all." Layla pouted. "I will get better soon. I'll gain sweight once my appetite returns." "Fine.e and eat!" Avery took the food out of the thermal bag and the scent immediately filled Layla's nose.
Her stomach immediately started rumbling. She had not been able to eat much for the past two days and would often get hungry very soon after meals.

Seeing Layla eat, Elliot got up and went to the kitchen.
Layla saw him walking away from the corner of her eyes and tensed slightly however, all would be good as long as he stayed out of the guest bedroom. "I'm going to the kitchen," Avery recalled that Layla said she was tidying the kitchen and wanted to help. "Sure," Layla said.
Avery went into the kitchen and found vegetables diced and placed into separate bowls around the cutting board. She glanced at the ingredients and smiled, "I'm surprised by how patient she te Looks like she really enjoys cooking. Women are often quite frail during their periods, and I would have never cooked if I was on my period..." Elliot did not wish for his daughter to cook at all and did not respond to Avery's words.
Layla snuck back into her bedroom to hide all her medication as both her parents were inside the kitchen Once they were hidden, she relaxed and walked out of the bedroom, only to find her mother alone in the kitchen. "Mom! Where's Dad?" She asked, noticing that the guest bedroom door was open.
She instantly felt as though she had been struck by lightning.
"I don't know! Maybe he is in the bathroom..." Avery was clueless.
