Oscar accompanied Stephanie to the nearby supermarket. They walked out of the complex in silence, one behind the other, their footsteps falling in
Watching them, a spark of curiosity ignited within Molly. “How did they used to be together?” she asked Diana. “Was Oscar always so quiet?” Over the past two months, she had surprisingly gotten to know Oscar well enough, but Stephanie had been in a fragile state, so they barely interacted.
Diana, who’d been tirelessly sprucing up the apartment, straightened up and winked at Molly. You’ll see soon enough. The shorter the skirts, the higher the stocks.”
