The girl who was still sobbing a minute ago was now grinning from ear to ear when Meredith started eating.

After clearing the bowl of pasta, Meredith looked up at the girl and thanked her, “Thank you for the food, I really appreciate it.”

With the empty bowl in her hands, the girl smiled and said, “You’re welcome. I’m happy as long as the baby is healthy.”

“Thank you, but…” Meredith noticed that the girl seemed somewhat mentally unstable, but still, she said to her, “Miss, can you please help me keep a secret and don’t tell anyone about my child?”
