Walking down stairs and across the white tiles flooring, Danika walked past all of the men and sat down. "Good to have you down here danika" "you did well on that course" "no team work though" "we understand that but she still did well" xavion nodded. "Your nineteenth is next weekend. Do you want to do anything?" Danika shook her head no "every birthday is important. I understand you don't like to socialise but maybe a meal that you like?" "Maybe the hotel she goes to" "that's not the best place" "it's where she can be comfortable. They don't make her remove her hood" xavion nodded 'i haven't seen my daughter in five years. Even then I was hardly home' Food being placed down on the table, Danika stared at it. 'he should know I can't have crustacean foods' "this looks really good" "thank you" 'i can't eat this' "you can eat Danika" Danika sat back "DANIKA. THAT IS FIFTY DOLLARS JUST ON YOUR PLATE" 'she usually eats... Why isn't she eating?' "EAT" Danika slowly pulled the plate towards her. 'something is wrong here' 'maybe this can get me to mom and Damon' Danika picked up the crab and ripped it open. "Good. You will eat what is served" Vandal looked at Danika as she hesitated then put it in her mouth. Taking her time eating, Danika could feel her throat closing. Tears of happiness streaming down her face, Danikas breathing slowed. 'its only getting harder..'
