(Winona)

As we step into the grand entry hall, the sheer opulence of the estate has Lisa's jaw dropping and Lance running a hand over the polished marble walls, his eyes wide.

Staff are stationed at every corner, poised and ready to cater to our every need. For once, I let it happen. I know Lisa and Lance will enjoy being treated like royalty.

"Would you like some canapés prepared, ma'am?" a well-dressed server inquires with a respectful nod.

Lisa perks up. "Canapés? Yes, please! And a glass of bubbly wouldn't hurt."

"Sparkling water for me," I add, smiling. "And whatever Lance wants."

"Beer," he grins, clearly taken aback by the attention. "Whatever the local drop is. Ice-cold and keep them coming. If that's okay?"

The staff nod and disappear into the kitchen to fetch our requests, and I notice Lisa practieally bouncing beside me, loving the special treatment.

Lance looks like a kid in a candy store, wandering around in awe of every detail from the frescoed ceilings to the antique furniture that likely costs more than any of us would care to think about. Not to mention the artworks and collector décor. "Can you believe this place?" Lisa says, leaning close. "This isn't just luxury; it's a real palace!"

"Yeah," I chuckle, taking in the room around us, "but it's no place to raise kids, you know? One wrong move and they'd be smashing priceless vases or toppling suits of armor. There's a Picasso in the living room!"

Lance shakes his head. "Seriously, Winona, I don't know how you're managing all this. I'm terrified of breaking something just by looking at it."

"Yeah, mirrors are bad enough," Lisa teases him.

"Ha. Ha."
