As the three of them were chatting, Officer Graham came out carrying a large dish of cheese-baked rice.
Behind Officer Graham were Ethan Dawson and Taylor Vance.
"So you three were hiding in here chatting. Come on, try my cheese-baked rice."
"Where is everyone else?"
Officer Graham pointed inside. "I made two big dishes. The others are in the living room watching TV. I left the other dish for them. This one's for you."
"This is delicious! Mr. Graham, your cooking is on par with a five-star hotel chef." Quincy was the first to take a bite. Before the apocalypse, he'd had cheese-baked rice a few times, but none of it had been as good as Officer Graham's.
"If I hadn't become a police officer, I might have become a chef," Officer Graham joked, a rare occurrence.
Evelyn Ford and Ronan Kendrick also ate a good amount of the baked rice. Paired with the tea and several oranges they'd had earlier, Evelyn was starting to feel a bit stuffed.
