That evening, the group gathered at Cherise's home for a wonderful dinner.

Bella's cooking amazed everyone.

"Bella, your food is amazing! I couldn't stop eating, even when I was full," Xenia said, patting her stomach with a grin.

Bella beamed, enjoying the rare happiness in her home. "That's wonderful! My house is big and peaceful. The more, the merrier! I'll keep trying new dishes to keep everyone happy." Bella was well known in Saphira for her culinary talents. She had made a feast of sixteen dishes, each one a favorite that Cherise had loved since she was a child.
