Teni

Oh..my..god. Here we go again, she always overreacts when someone eats her food. And I already know she’s going to blame me for eating it.

Why would she suspect you?

I usually eat her food. But I swear it wasn’t me this time.

Teni I already know it was you, you always eat my food. Case closed.
