The Beginning Of All Sins

Tyler seemed to have done that because Mais

asked him to. Olivia just stared at her plate but didn’t eat

Tyler kept on eating his meal, while Maisy and Ana watched everything quietly. Olivia finally picked up her

fork and started eating the food he gave her.

After seeing Olivia eat, Tyler went back to his food.

Nobody talked while they were eating.

Then Maisy suddenly asked, “Aren’t you going out today?”

Olivia didn’t look up but listened carefully for Tyler’s answer.

Tyler put down his fork, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and said, “I have some work to do.”

Maisy looked really angry and told him, “You’ve been busy for days. It’s enough work now.”

Tyler didn’t say anything back.

Ana put down her fork and knife and said, “Why do you need to take care of her yourself? Olivia’s sister is your in–law. We can just hire a nurse to take care of her.”

Olivia gripped her fork tightly but then let go, bracing herself for an argument.

Tyler put his napkin down and looked at Ana. He leaned back and asked her, “Since when do you care

about this? If you’re free, why don’t you check on Dad?” His voice was calm, as if he was just talking about

the weather.

Ana just stared at him angrily. After a moment, she scoffed, “It does sound like I’m poking my nose into your business.”

Tyler stood up from his chair. “I’m finished. You can continue.” Then he walked away from the table.

Olivia didn’t know what to do. During the conversation, she started to realize something about Ana and

Keith.

Since Olivia became part of the family, she barely saw Keith at home. At first, she thought he was just busy, but even when work should have been over, he was hardly ever there.

She noticed that Ana and Keith didn’t talk much to each other. They seemed like a couple, but there was a big gap between them. Tyler didn’t seem to care about his parents relationship either.

This was all new to Olivia; she had never seen a family like this before.

She didn’t say anything and just quietly put down her fork and knife, sitting there as if she wasn’t there.

After Tyler left, Ana stood up and said to Maisy, “I’m done too, Mom. You can keep eating.”

Maisy sighed and tried to make Ana feel better. “Don’t worry about what Tyler said.”

“Why would I worry?” Ana forced a smile. She was upset but determined to show Tyler what happens when he opposes her, even if he is her son.

Then Ana also left.

Maisy looked worried and told Olivia, ‘Please eat.”

Olivia didn’t look around and just kept eating.

That day, breakfast ended abruptly.
