Her expression grew more awkward, and she let out a light huff, "So what if I did?"
Nina crossed her arms and looked at her with a hint of amusement. "Why are you bringing me food? Weren't you trying to kick me out just a few days ago?"
Arin's pride was visibly bruised. She glanced at Nina and then looked away. "I didn't want you to starve. The village is in shambles, and many people are eating communal meals. When I didn't see you around, I worried you'd starve to death. I don't want another death in our village."
The excuse was flimsy. Nina remembered Arin's previous antics and the fact that she had saved Arin's brother. It was probably guilt that prompted Arin to bring her a meal.
Nina walked inside, sat down, and glanced at the food. "There's even meat. Did you bring out your family's best for this?"
"Who says that!" Arin followed her inside. "Everyone's eating this. I'm not making any special treatment for you!"
Despite her defiant attitude, Arin was still a young girl who couldn't hide her emotions well.
Nina didn't push further and decided to give her some face. She picked up the utensils and took a bite.
Arin's face lit up with anticipation. "How is it?"
Nina nodded. "Not bad."
Arin beamed with pride. "Tastes good, right? Probably just as good as the food in your country."
Nina asked, "Have you eaten yet?"
Arin rubbed her stomach. She had spent all her time making this meal for Nina and had forgotten to eat herself. When Nina asked, she realized just how hungry she was.
Nina noticed right away and handed her the bowl of rice. "Here, you eat."
Arin hesitated. "If I eat, what will you have?"
"I’m on a diet. I’ll just have some vegetables," Nina replied.
Arin looked at Nina’s figure and said, "You need to diet? How do you expect the rest of us to survive?"

I see you increased the number of chapters per day by 2, but please can we have like 20 chapters per day? 7 chapters is too little, the suspense is just crazy...
