Normal POV

Meliodas was peacefully humming while cooking lunch for him, Hawk and Meldy. Mama Pig was walking to another town finding a good spot for the bar to settle down.
"Hawk! Meldy! Soup is almost done!" Meliodas added the finishing touches to the lunch table. Meldy came in after cleaning the dirt off of mama Pig's back and Hawk came down from upstairs.
"Wah....Papa....Everything looks delicious...." Meldy's eyes sparkles.
"Let's just hope that it TASTES delicious." Hawk eats leftovers but sometimes, he would like to try Meliodas' cooking that haven't turned rotten yet.

"Okay..dig in you two!" Hawk tasted the meatloaf Meliodas had made. Just one taste got his mouth asking.
"Huh....for the first time.....your meatloaf actually tasted decent." Hawk stuffed down the meatloaf filling his food bowl.
"It was that good huh?"
"Yeaww...mmmmm..." says Hawk. Table manners with not present in this bar.
"How about you Meldy? You liking the soup?"

Meliodas turned to see Meldy gulping down the 7th bowl of soup. It was just seconds ago that she started eating and now, the 7th bowl? How did that happen?
"Pap..your soup is delicious! This is by far, the best dish I've tasted from the rest." Meldy blushed to the max at how good the soup tasted.
"Really? That's great! ...guess I'll make some more every meal time then." Meliodas grinned.

"Meldy, can I have a taste?" Hawk asked. Meldy gave him a bowl of the soup. If the meatloaf was that good, then the soup must be delicious. That's what Hawk had thought. He didn't think twice to dive down into the bowl of liquid.
Once it touched Hawk's esophagus, it did not end well. Hawk barf out all the contents of the food he ate.

"Hawk-chan...are you okay?" Meldy tapped his back as Hawk vomitted in front of the open window.
"I..I don't feel so good."
"Papa....what did you put in that soup?" meldy wondered why she didn't barf out everything in seconds.

"nothing.....just normal ingredients...." Meliodas rubbed his chin. "ah...also, the canned soup expired months ago..I thought of heating it up so it doesn't go to waste." Meliodas cheerfully said.

"uh.......uh..." Hawk tried to say something.
"ah.......I see." Meldy's sweat dropped.
