Sienna nodded eagerly. "Mm-hmm!"

"Wait, why isn't Tessa here yet?" Naomi glanced toward the door and pulled out her phone. "I'll call in and check on her."

Naomi's smile immediately disappeared, replaced by a hint of annoyance. "Who invited them?"

Sienna shook her head, her expression a picture of innocence.
