This choice: Dahlia reluctantly agrees to become your nurse • Go Back...Chapter #10Your Little Nurse by: Doom   The meal continues, with you picking at your humble offering while the giants scarf down truckloads. The crushing, crunching noise of their jaws working is terrifying, expecially when you find at least one member of the family has their eyes glued on you at all times. You could not be more at their mercy.
"Dahlia," George declares eventually, dabbing ineffectively at his lips with a napkin, "I'm trusting you."
