As Alice glanced at Barbara, her once respectful demeanor had shifted to one filled with resentment. She eagerly helped Mona by pouring water, still addressing her with respect.

Sering Alice's behavior, Barbara felt a surge of anger. Just yesterday, Alice had been so attentive to her. Now, that attention had shifted to Mona, and Barbara could only watch Alice with disdain.

Mona glanced at the cup in her hand. Initially, she hadn't intended to accept it, but seeing Barbara's disapproving gaze made her change her mind.
