Erin's face paled even more after she heard Sophia's words, and she looked at her mother. She was trying to ask for her help, but her mother didn't know what she would do next. Seeing Sophia eats the food, and, naturally, Sophia wants Erin to eat too.
“Auntie, Erin told me I can be her sister, so I think it's fine if she eats my food with me. It's just a small cut of meat, and the food is delicious.” Sophia bowed her head, but she didn't even remove the meat from the fork. She was hoping that Erin wouldn't notice that she was aware of the contents of the food that they had prepared for her.
“Please, Auntie. I am feeling bad right now, and I think there is something wrong with my food even though we all have the same food on our plates.” Sophia flashed an anxiousness on her face, which made Erin's mother panic. Of course, she didn't want Sophia to notice that she had put something on her food. However, she didn't like Erin to eat Sophia's food because they both were allergic. She sighed, it's now or never.
She needed to sacrifice Erin's health so Sophia wouldn't noticed that when something bad might happen to her. In that case, she wouldn't be doubtful because Erin eat her food.
“Erin, eat her food.” Erin's mother commanded which made Erin surprised. Her eyes widened, and she was gripping her fist in too much fury. She was hoping that she could throw Sophia's food but once she did that, Sophia would notice that they had done something to her food, and her father might find out about it.
Sophia smiled. She took a lot of her food, and she made sure that there was a lot of sauce coated on it. Someone texted her that the peanut was mixed in the sauce.
“Here, I'm happy that Auntie didn't change. She still loves me.” Sophia whispered and pointed the fork to Erin's mouth.
Erin was nervous, but she had no choice when she saw her mother glaring at her. It looks like she was warning her to do what she told her to do. Erin opened her mouth, and she ate what Sophia had given to her. She chewed slowly and swallowed the food.
“Thank you, my sister. I am happy that you finally accepted me as your sister. And I hope that you wouldn't be jealous because of me. I want to be close to Auntie.” Sophia happily said and ate everything on her plate. She glimpsed at Erin, and she could see that her face was reddened, and she was gripping her water glass.
“Oh! Sophia, you're still such a nice and lovable child. Of course, my daughter wouldn't mind if I were close to you. She will understand because she hopes she will be your sister too. I'm happy that we will finally be completed.” Erin's mother chuckled and secretly glanced at Erin
“Auntie, I know that daddy will be happy once he discovers that we're fine. I want him to be happy since he is the best father in the world.” Sophia forced herself to smile and tried her best not to expose her feelings. She wanted to calm herself that she was acting so well that Erin and her mother didn't even notice that she was working.
“I know your father will be happy. Welcome to the family!” Erin's mother raised her glass and tasted her drink. Sophia did the same while Erin couldn't breathe properly because of what she ate.
Sophia acted like she was coughing. She didn't like to see Erin die quickly, and she wanted to see her suffer first, so she needed to work out that she might not feel well. “Auntie, I don't know what happened to me, but I couldn't breathe properly. Can I rest? It looks like I am too exhausted because of the jetlag.”
Sophia loudly coughed and smacked her chest.
“Of course, you can have your rest. You will still use your room. And I asked someone to clean it for you.” Erin's mother mumbled. Her face was pale because she could see that Erin was silently suffering. She saw how Erin's face turned red even more, and she knew Erin couldn't breathe properly.
“Are you sure, Auntie? I don't want you to feel unhappy that I left you two while you two were eating.” Sophia acted that she was hesitant. She would make sure that Erin would be rushed to the hospital. She was too delighted that she was witnessing how Erin suffered.
“Oh! Yes, dear. It's fine with me. Don't worry about us.”
“M-Mom….” Erin tried to smile, but it was too evident that her smile wasn't natural. Sophia acted like she was stupid.
Sophia turned around, and her facial reaction changed. She could hear Erin's mother when she saw how Erin gasped for air. She quickly leaves them in the dining room, but she is hiding to watch how Erin's mother would do everything to save her slutty daughter.
She saw how Erin lost consciousness, and her mother screamed for help. Sophia smiled and went to her room. She felt that she had finally had a great day. She was hoping that Erin would stay at the hospital for a week because she was too tired to act like she was a fool.
She glanced at her room, and she needed to do it first. She needed to make sure that they didn't even put a camera or even a recorder in her room.

Blossom smiled when she saw how the whole world knew about her relationship with Leo. She was munching chips when she felt her phone vibrate. It was an unknown number, so she opened the message and felt happier. She couldn't believe that she would experience that kind of happiness.
Blossom closed and opened her eyes before she stood up. She smirked when she looked at her phone and took it. She messaged back to the sender and deleted their conversation.
When she heard the footsteps were coming in her direction. She put her phone on the table, and took the chips that she was eating.
“What are you eating? Didn't I tell you that you shouldn't eat chips? I don't want our baby to be sick once you give birth.” Leo coldly said. He sighed because it's been hours since Blossom was too stubborn. She didn't like to listen on his words, and she kept reasoning that the baby liked it.
“Baby, the baby wants it. Do you want me to cry so the baby will cry, too?” Blossom asked back. Leo felt the sudden danger, and he knew that once he wrongly answered Blossom, she would cry too much.
“Baby, of course I don't want you to cry, either our baby. I want you both to be healthy. Please, eat some vegetables.”
“I am eating vegetables. Did you see that these chips were made with vegetables? It means I am eating veggies!”
“But, you need some fresh vegetables. Please, the baby needs the nutrients of the vegetables.”
Blossom angrily put back the chips on the table, glared at Leo. She was too annoyed because Leo kept controlling her. Her eyes moistened because she realized that she was acting like a bitch, and she slowly realized that she did something wrong. Leo was concerned about her and the baby, but she was acting like she didn't understand it, and Leo was the one who would need to adjust for her.
“Oh, why are you crying? Please, stop crying. I'm sorry if I acted that I didn't understand that you liked eating those chips because you were pregnant and the baby liked it.” Leo whispered, which made Blossom feel unhappy even more. She slumped on the couch, and she cried. She didn't understand herself anymore because she acted so selfishly.
“Shut up! Okay, I am wrong, and you are right. I'm sorry if I am so greedy because of these chips!” Blossom cried even more while Leo tried to stop himself from smiling. He took the napkin, and hugged Blossom before he wiped her tears. Blossom didn't stop crying, and she looked like a child who didn't get the food that she wanted.
“Okay, I'm sorry too. Please, stop crying. The doctor told me that you must avoid stress, and I am sorry if I did not stop myself from lecturing you. Okay, you will eat these chips but you should eat vegetables too.” Leo mumbled before he pulled her even more for a hug. Leo pursed his lips, and he didn't even feel terrible because of Blossom.
The truth was he liked it whenever Blossom was acting like that, as if she needed him whatever it caused.
“Come on! Eat your chips and I will prepare you vegetables. I want to cook for you, and prepare some smoothies for you.” Leo uttered before he helped Blossom to sit on the couch. But, Blossom's face turned sour, and she touched her lower abdomen.
“It hurts.” Blossom winced, and she tried to move but Leo panicked when he noticed Blossom's face turned pale.
Leo carried her too quickly without even asking if she was truly hurt. He rushed to the nearest hospital, and didn't even think Blossom might be joking with him. He was too worried that something terrible might happen to their baby, which made him go to the hospital recklessly.
“Everything is fine. Maybe she felt stressed when she felt that something on her lower abdomen was aching.” The doctor announced. She glanced at Blossom, who was looking at the monitor.
“Mr. Fontaine, I want to remind you the pregnant woman is too sensitive. Whenever they like something to do, they are too emotional whenever you are trying to stop her.”
“The baby is fine, but I want to remind you that Blossom needed to take her vitamins everyday. You need to take care of her since it's her first pregnancy.”
The doctor even recommended some books to Leo, which made Leo agree. He was guilty that he caused stress to Blossom, and he couldn't even forgive himself once something terrible happened to the baby.
“Can I talk to Blossom privately?” The doctor stated. She looked at Blossom, who was her friend before she deeply sighed. She noticed that Blossom was lying, and she felt bad that Leo was too stressed because of her friend.
“What is it? Is there something wrong with the baby?” Leo couldn't stop himself from asking. He even glimpsed at Blossom, who was too worried while looking at him back.
“Like, I said minutes ago. The baby was safe, but she needed to be extra careful. Aside from that, she is my friend, and I want to talk to her to know everything. I want to ask her if she is stressed about something or what she thinks. This is a personal talk to my patient.
Leo nodded, but he was confused. He peeked at Blossom before he left them to give them privacy so they could talk for more.
“Mrs. Fontaine, are you happy to see your husband getting worried about you and the baby? I didn't even see anything wrong when I checked you.”
“Oh, come on. Brea, I know that you know why I am here. I want to see her suffer in this hospital.”
Brea sighed. She was trying to calm herself since she knew why Blossom went to the hospital she was working for. Blossom found out that Erin had been rushed to the hospital.
“Yeah, and I can't believe that you are using your baby to get here.” Brea exclaimed. She even rolled her eyes before she put down her stethoscope.
“I am sorry if I am using you as an excuse.”
“And I am thankful that you finally realized why I am mad at you. Argh! You should be thankful that I am your friend, or else. Well, about Erin, she was rushed here because she ate something. She almost died here.”
“Oh! It looks like it's not her time yet.” Blossom commented.
