“Where’s Eileen?” Leyla asked first.

Bryan responded softly, “She’s still asleep, and Gabriela hasn’t woken up, either. If you need her to do anything, I can do it for her.”

Stella opened her mouth to speak, but before she could say anything, Leyla said, “You can’t do it. How could a man handle these tasks? Your hands are for working. Leave the chores to the women. Go and wake Eileen up.”
