Resupply, or wait a bit?
Wait a bit.
You watch the two sisters as they hold each other. Calmly, you move to the stove in the corner, and grab two cans of food stacked nearby.
"You hungry?" you ask, tossing the comment over your shoulder.
"Yes, Please!" Brittney says, her attention fully on the can you are holding. You are a bit puzzled by her response, since you're just holding a can of chili. Erin too looks up, and you see her lick her lips apprehensively.
You quickly rinse a pot with some bottled water, and light the stove. Using a can opener, you deftly remove the lid and pour the contents into the pot, placing it upon the hot stove. The food cooks slowly, filling the air with the scent.
"It's been a while, since we had anything to eat." forwards Erin, showing some signs of awareness.
"It's not much, but I hope it helps." you respond, stirring the chili. After a few minutes, slight bubbles rise in the semi-liquid, and you pour it into two fairly clean bowls. Cautiously, you approach the sisters lying on your bed, and proffer the food.
They accept, and what seems like a smile crosses Erin's slightly bruised face. They eat slowly, but constantly, savoring every taste like they haven't eaten in days. Actually, from the way they are eating, they probably haven't.
Do you ask them for information, or just let them relax?
