Summary: Natalie likes a bit of Chinese and Gareth does not.
"Thanks for the free lunch," Natalie smiles, around an enthusiastic spoonful of egg drop soup. Gareth sighs deeply, but says nothing. It's the egg in Natalie's soup that's bothering him the most, evoking old traumas. But the past is the past, and it's the the present he's considering now. Natalie nearly glows today, and he knows why. This trust is strange and new to him, too. That's how he knows he'll tell her about his childhood one day. The day is wrapped in sunlight, and this is all he wants; Natalie smiling easily, and this warm, comfortable peace they share.
