Silent Family Room (night of 14/12/2023)

I am in a room with my father and sister. everyone is silent, involced in their own worlds. I think I may be reading. I feel restless and consterained. Is it normal to spend so much time in a room without speaking? I leave the room for a kitchen. I am cooking some food, frying some oil. This is pleasing. There is some kind of butter on the edges of the frying pan which I ease into the oil. This butter is the remnant of previous meals cooked.
