“Son, don’t you eat real food? I’m bound to rip one of those muffins ‘outta your mouth if I don’t see you down in the cafeteria today.”
Sero was told the café lady was a kind and sweet old lady. Sero has yet to see this. He suspects she was informed of his habits of not wanting to eat what these people call ‘real food.’ Having lived his life out in the West Ward until just a few weeks ago, he was way more used to packaged goods as sustenance. It wasn’t his fault food without preservatives or copious amounts of sugar tasted weird. But MEIA was insistent on ‘healthy’ agents, thus the old lady on his ass about eating pastries.
Sero simply grumbled and sat in the farthest seat away to properly sulk with his morning coffee. The lady running the café sighs and tsks before turning to go back to her routine, sweetly calling out to her daughter as if she hadn’t just been nagging him. Finally in blissful silence, Sero enjoys the sugary blueberry muffin. Much better than eggs or salad or whatever the heck they had downstairs...
These muffins were so good he’s half inclined to actually listen to the woman and show up in the cafeteria today.
