It was like any other day. She picked up beautiful fragrant flowers from her garden and placed them in a vase beside the portrait of her father. Then she arranged two plates on the table, cut the crispy bread loaf into two and placed each piece on one plate.

Then she sat down, closed her eyes and started praying.

The window door was open; a cold breeze filled the room. The air smelled like summer holidays. It was peaceful.

After finishing the prayer, she opened her eyes and exclaimed, "Let's eat!"

She finished her portion in seconds; no wonder she was starving. Then she started at the piece of bread on the other plate.

Rin asked, pretending to be talking with her father, "Father aren't you hungry today?"

Rin replied, acting like her dad, "Not that much...I ate a lot yesterday at the office party! "

"Really? What did you eat?"

"There were lots of food! Cake, juice, noodles deserts...I couldn't even finish it!"

"Woow! must be nice ha..."

"Sure it was. I will take you there next time."

"That's great!! I'm looking forward to it!"

"Oh no! I'm getting late for work. I will try to come back early today….you can have my breakfast and don't waste food."

"Thank you, Dad! Take care!"

Rin waited for some time, then picked up the bread from the other plate and started eating it. As she was chewing, she smirked, "Mission Soft Crispy Bread aka SCB... successful!"

Then suddenly, she heard a loud blast. It was so intense that the windows were vibrating.

"Was it an earthquake? Did someone break into the house?"

It was still unclear.
