In the midst of their chitchat, the movers had already moved all the furniture into the new house So, Katelyn invited Anastasia to have a peek.

Feeling too awkward to decline, Anastasia said, “Ms Katelyn, I need to drop off these groceries at my house first.”

Anastasia had bought a ton of ingredients and a huge watermelon. After she put the groceries away, she cut half of the watermelon for Katelyn.

Katelyn was on the phone in the new house, calling the housekeeper to come over and clean up. Anastasia stood behind Katelyn, not wanting to disturb her, just listening quietly to her conversation.
