The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Melody closed her eyes in anguish. She did not want to go back to that place.

"If it doesn't matter where I live, then why can't I stay in the dormitory? I like it here. Please, Lucas, let me decide where I live. My life belongs to me..."

"I've said what I said. If you keep getting thinner, I'll come and take you back. Have you forgotten what the doctor said? You need to get proper care. Do you want to end up in the hospital again?" asked Lucas. Melody closed her eyes in pain. She did not want to go back to the hospital, nor did she want to return to the Riveras.

"Alright. You have my word I won't get any thinner."

Lucas finally seemed satisfied at Melody's reply. "From now on, send me pictures of your three meals every day. I want to confirm personally that you're eating well. If your diet is not up to standard, I'll have Lynette prepare and send meals to you."

Melody immediately rejected his proposal. She came to the dormitory to distance herself from everything related to the Riveras as much as possible. Having meals prepared and sent over would only lead to unnecessary entanglements.

"There's no need... " Melody began, but seeing Lucas frown, she continued with some casual nonsense, not wanting to argue further. "I don't want to attract attention with the crew. Besides, the cafeteria food is good. As you said, you've asked me to send you pictures for confirmation. Maybe you'll be satisfied with that? Please don't have Lynette cook and send meals over to me. I don't want that," Melody insisted.
