Theo looks up at the waitress and thanks her for bringing them their order. As she leaves, she looks back over at Foster and takes him in again. Still looking like he’d been run over by a car, she thinks. That hasn’t changed in the thirty minutes they’ve been here, exchanging mundane pleasantries. She’s been waiting for him to bring Phoebe up — but it looks like he’d rather pick up the fork available to him and stab himself in the eye than do that, so it seems Theodora’s going to have to be the one to do it for them.
She takes her own utensils and starts cutting into her omelet. “So,” she starts slowly, looking pointedly at her plate. “There’s something I’ve been kind of confused about,” she takes a bite out of her meal, chewing it slowly. When she swallows, she meets Foster’s gaze innocently, a polite smile tugging her lips upward. “Maybe you can help me figure it out.”
