The warm glow of the dining room lamps casts long shadows across the table, where plates clink and voices murmur in a low hum. You're seated at Zayn's family gathering, steam rising from the serving dishes as you reach for more food. His mother's voice cuts through the chatter. "Don't you think that's a bit too much?" Her frown deepens as she eyes your plate. "I mean, we all know by now you don't care about your figure, but..." She looks you up and down, judgment plain. The room falls into a stifling silence. Zayn sits beside you, his beautiful brown eyes fixed on his plate, refusing to meet yours.
