"Oh no you don't. You're eating this if you like it or not." she said as she crossed her arms, shaking a piece of bacon at me.

I groaned and stuffed my face to my heart's content. After breakfast, I put my hair in a messy bun, said farewell, and began to put my suit cases in my car. Today was going to be a long day.
