Anastasia had previously warned Salma about Sandy's shrewd nature. Seeing Sandy and Katelyn so chummy sparked a flicker of concern in Salma. But then she recalled that Sandy lived in Willowbrook and didn't often visit Riverdale, so she brushed off her worries. "Hey there, Aunt Salma," Sandy greeted with a warm smile. "Did my sister turn in for the night?"

"Of course, sweetheart. Get some sleep. If you need anything, just holler," Katelyn replied, eager to make Sandy feel at home.

"Thank you, Auntie," Sandy said with a polite nod before heading upstairs.
