Astonished, Cassie couldn't believe Mashauva had awoken early in the morning for a morning run. "Yes, Mrs. Taylor. Miss Mashauva left wearing running shoes."

"How long had she been out?"

"About an hour."

"It's been an hour?"

Hearing that, Cassie was shocked. "She has not returned after an hour? Where has she run to?"

"No, this won't do." Cassie grew stern. "It's so dangerous for a girl to be out so early in the morning alone. I have to go and look for her."

After that, Cassie said to the servant, "Go and wake Sir up. Tell him to come down and look for her together."

Then, Cassie put on a coat and headed out.

As a result, no sooner had Cassie exited the door than she saw Mashauva, who had just come back from her jog.

"Mom?" "Mashauva?"

Cassie walked up to her. "I was just about to go looking for you. What is wrong with you? Why did you get up so early to jog on such a cold day? And you're wearing so little. What if you catch a cold?" Mashauva shook her head. "It's fine, Mom. I've been running for some distance, and my body feels hot. I'm sweating a bucket. Gosh, I feel like a furnace."

After that, Mashauva went inside to take off her clothes. Cassie quickly caught up to her and dried her sweat with a towel. "Go change your clothes quickly. You've never gone for a jog in your life. Are you trying to give me a heart attack, waking up so early, exercising so diligently?"

Mashauva was panting lightly, surprised at how exhausting it was to jog for an hour. She had wanted to give up several times in the middle of it, but when she thought of Bruno, she gritted her teeth and plowed

on.

Finally, she ran back when it was almost time.

"No, Mom, it just occurred to me that I should exercise more." Mashauva did not let Cassie in on her plan but used a different excuse. "Someone told me on my trip; life lies in movement. It's important to exercise if you want a healthy life."
