Norris quipped, "What are you, the neighborhood gossip now? Besides, Anne probably doesn't know the ins and outs of everyone's private life. What's the point in asking her? Next time, just go straight to Mr. Reynolds himself." Madge actually nodded, "Alright, I'll ask him directly if I get the chance."

"Wait... you're serious?" Norris was taken aback.

Madge rolled her eyes, "Anne, got any sugar cubes?"

"Yeah, I'll grab them," Anne replied, standing up to head to the kitchen.

With their daughter out of earshot, Madge turned to Norris, "Anne lives alone and she's right next door to Mr. Reynolds. They seem to get along well, so shouldn't I get the lowdown?"

"You've got a point there. My wife always thinks of everything, heh..."

Madge glared at him, "Don't get all cozy now. What will Anne think if she sees us like this?"

"Ahem!" Norris promptly sat up straight, "I'll be more mindful!"
