"....."
Delilah stared at the wrapper in her hand, her brows knitting faintly. There, neatly tucked inside the wrapper, was her favorite chocolate bar.
It was something she couldn't do without.
Her addiction. Her obsession.
And yet...
"It's tasteless."
Taking a small bite of it, her deep eyes turned hollow. She couldn't taste anything. The explosion of sweetness and flavor that she once used to enjoy was suddenly gone.
Like that.
The one little joy that remained with her was gone.
Tak!
The chocolate bar fell onto he desk as her face blanked. In the meantime, a small crow appeared from behind her, secretly eying the chocolate bar as it cautiously looked in Delilah's direction before moving stealthily towards it.
Its beak was just about to reach it when...
Wham!
"Akh!"
The crow was suddenly thrown towards the other side of the room as Delilah blinked her eyes.
"...Oh."
She didn't even mean to do that.
It was purely out of reflex.
