Part 6 - Dinner Affairs ‘Part 1’
After they were able to get the twins back to sleep, Al had invited Ed and Sammy to stay for dinner. Seeing as how it was getting rather late in the evening, Ed accepted the offer.
Winry and Sarah were finishing setting the table as Ed helped Sammy into a booster seat that had been left over from where Sarah was a child. Ed took the seat next to her as everyone else was getting settled, making up their plates. There was mostly small talk going on as Ed set a child sized portion of chicken and green beans in front of Sammy. Ed shuddered a little as he was handed a glass of milk, setting it in front of Sammy.
The little brunette looked at the glass, and then looked down at her plate, trying to avoid eye contact with the white liquid as she put another green bean into her mouth. Ed didn't push the issue until Winry noticed Sammy's glass was still rather untouched. "Sammy... Aren't you thirsty?" The little girl shook her head, picking at the chicken Ed had cut into small, bite-sized pieces for her. Winry looked at Ed, who just shrugged "It's going to get warm if you don't..." Sammy just started to pout, folding her arms in a very Ed-like fashion "Milk is yucky...."
Al and Sarah looked up, Al having a fork halfway up towards his mouth at the time. "Did she just say what I think she said?" Al looked at Ed, an eyebrow raised. Ed nodded, stifling a little laugh "Rowan said they had been having a problem..." Winry shook her head "Ed, she's more like you than Rowan ever was...."
Sammy was still pouting, but had started to push the glass away with a finger. In a way, it looked as if she was trying to hold her breath as she did so. Ed stopped the glass from moving, holding the rim with his outstretched fingers, lifting it up. He set it back in front of Sammy, who turned her head, arms crossed once again. "Poppit, you really need to drink it... It's good for you..." Ed couldn't believe he was saying that, seeing as how he wouldn't even touch a drop unless forced to do so. And by force, meant being held down and having it poured into his mouth, which that was easier said than done.
Al hand long since put his fork back on his plate, and Winry was cocking her head to one side, an eyebrow raised. Sammy shook her head, her lips tightly closed, staring down the vile liquid contained in the glass. Ed put on his best smile "Can you do it for me then?" Sammy shook her head again "I won't..." she said with a bit of a sternness in her little voice.
Ed was at a loss for words, he knew he was stubborn about it, which was fine, but to have her inherit the same trait was rather a problem. As much as Ed hated to admit it, if she didn't drink it, her growth would be stunted. "Please Poppit? It'll be a nice thing to do for your Paw-Paw..." She shook her head again, her gaze fixed on the glass. If she could have stared a hole through it and let the liquid escape, she would have. There was no changing her mind, which Ed knew all too well for he was just as hard headed about the issue as she was being.
Al chuckled "I have an idea... Sammy, if Paw-Paw drank it, would you?" Ed shot a glare at Al that made him shrink back a little bit, but there was still a nice sized smile plastered on his face.
