It was the same ointment, but the person who had given it to her was different.

Since departing from the Norris family, her interactions with the family’s elders had dwindled. Aware that she was forging a new path, they no longer intruded on her life.

The Morrisons had not extended an invitation to the Norris family for their family reunion banquet, but Shawn and Melany still thoughtfully sent Carrie a gift. It wasn’t as valuable as the necklace Kristopher had sent her, but it was a pair of shoes custom-made by her favorite brand. The elder couple made sure the gift arrived on the morning of the banquet.
