Looking down at himself, Joseph rolled his eyes and scoffed when he said that. “I have meat on my bones, thank you very much.” he said, but not sounding mean anymore like yesterday. Not eating until Shini said he could, Joseph nodded and ate some of the eggs. It had been so, so long since he had something cooked and fresh, so warm and tasty.
Humming with a smile on his face, Joseph ate a little more and looked at Shini. “Thanks again, this is...too much to ask for.” he said while looking down at the food.
