Trey hesitated a moment before accepting the offered plate of food. When she took it, she stood up on shaky legs and looked around as though half-expecting some sort of trap. When her eyes found the windows, she took a few steps toward the glass to press her hand against the pane as she gazed out into the pasture. The horses looked peaceful as they dozed in the sun.
Finally the smell of the food seemed to hit her, and she sat back down on the couch and promptly began to wolf it down. A couple of bites in, she had the presence of mind to look up at Sid and say, in a muffled voice, "Thanks."
She finished off the food very quickly. When she stood up again, she put a hand to her stomach and grimaced. There was a definite waver to her steps when she started to make her way to the dining room, but whether or not Sid attempted to help her, she'd manage ok. When she got to the kitchen, she set her plate down and filled a glass with water, gulping it down at a rate that sent some of it splashing onto her shirt.
