With Simon fully raised off of the ground, he moved back to his original spot from before Sarah dropped. He didn't talk this time, and instead stood in silence as Sarah continued to cook. It's wasn't a comfortable silence for him, as he wanted to talk or do something to ease the tension, but nothing he thought about would seemed to do what he planned, so he simply kept quiet. He hadn't realized it when she was cooking, but only after when he saw that she had made a bit much for the two of them. Her mom might have some when she came back, but even for three people it still seemed like much. He assumed that she had done it by accident, and didn't think about having to make less due to the fact that Mariah wouldn't be eating with them, but he didn't want to say anything about it.

Simon took his own plateful as well as some water before sitting down at the chair that Sarah pulled out for him. He nodded in thanks to her and began to eat in the silence. During his meal, he would occasionally cast a glance at Sarah with a look of worry etched onto his face. He still didn't say anything, and just continued to eat.
