considered that the fiancée chosen by Tatum's grandmother might actually be you?"

Tinsley looked at Elora with a knowing expression. "Sister, I think Tatum is different when it comes to you. The way he looks at you, the way he smiles around you it's special. You're smart, sister. I don't believe for a second that you haven't noticed. Have you ever Elora frowned, her skepticism evident. "How could that even be possible? I've never met his grandmother. I don't even know what she looks like. Why would she choose me without knowing me? Besides, Tatum made it clear he plans to leave and focus on pursuing his fiancée when the time comes. "Anyway," she added, waving off the idea, "if you're not upset, that's all I care about. From now on, just keep your distance. Enjoy the meals he cooks, but don't let your mind wander any further than that." Tinsley sighed silently, feeling exasperated. Elora clearly didn't believe her when she said she had no romantic feelings for Tatum. And honestly, Tinsley couldn't entirely blame her. She had openly admired Tatum's skills and personality a little too much, which likely fueled her sister's suspicions. Still, if keeping her distance was the only way to put Elora's mind at ease, then so be it.

After the New Year, Tinsley resolved to stop coming over for meals altogether. She would avoid Tatum and let Elora see that she had truly "moved on."

But for now? With the holidays approaching, Tinsley wasn't about to deprive herself of Tatum's incredible cooking. She would keep coming for dinner, pretend like nothing was amiss, and simply avoid praising Tatum in front of Elora. That should keep things from spiraling further. "Alright, sister," Tinsley finally said. "I'll do as you ask and keep my distance from Tatum in the future."

She stood up to leave. "I'm heading out now."
