We were all seated as we waited for our youngest sibling to arrive inside the dining room and Andreas sighed in boredom.
"Can we just start eating now? She's late, we shouldn't have to wait for her," He sneered.
"No Andreas, you will be patient and wait for your sister, and she is n-" Dad got cut off.
"Actually I'm right on time, dear brother," Alessia said as she burst through the double doors that led to the dining room.
Indeed she was right. She was not late, it was exactly 6:00pm.
It's a mystery why Andreas hates her so much, I mean those two were the closest when they were little. She was like his little shadow, and she had everyone wrapped around her little finger. She still does now. Even Dad and Alessandro.
They might not admit to it, but I've seen the looks of joy that appear on their faces whenever she enters the room.
Alessia took her seat in between me and Stefano, and the maids bustled in through the doors with masses of plates. The dishes were placed in front of everyone, as we each grab our own servings. It was fish, salad, salmon, cod, basically seafood.
I adore seafood.
It's the best. I shall hear no arguments about it.
As usual the eldest bunch all waited patiently for dad to take the first bite, a sign of respect. Whereas, the youngest were gulping the food down like ravenous wolves. Alessia however, even as the youngest of the family still waited for dad to eat before grabbing her food.
After dad took his first bite, Alessandro started to eat, then Vicenzo, then me and finally, she took a serving.
After a couple of minutes of the clattering of cutlery and plates, I noticed something.
Alessia wasn't eating much.
All she ate was a portion of salad, she was just poking the fish around in her plate. I looked around the room, watching them all stuff their faces nonchalantly.
I locked eyes with Vicenzo, he too noticed she wasn't eating.
