“Hey, don’t worry about it, ok squirt?” Shimmer said. “Besides, I’m honestly just glad you agreed to come with me.” She wrapped an arm around Sav and pulled her in close, asking “So, anything your hungry for? And don’t tell me you aren’t hungry because I heard your stomach earlier.” She said, giving Savannah’s tummy a poke.
“… Well, I-I’m not really hungry for anything.. l-like, I’m hungry, but I-I don’t really.. wanna eat? I dunno why…”
“I was n-never told that.. being s-s-sad made you hungry.” She shrugged. “Maybe.. maybe salad..?”
“Well, being sad doesn’t usually make you hungry, not unless you don’t eat for a couple of days. And Joseph did mention that.” Shimmer said. “Look, how about this: I saw a little burger joint in town. We’ll go there, and you can try to eat a little something ok? I just don’t want you starving to death or anything squirt.”
