Mona finally found the bag of sausages in the fridge, grinning when she saw they weren't expired. She held up the bag and waved it at Maxwell, who understood immediately. He rolled up his sleeves, knowing what was coming.

By the time Albert came back downstairs, freshly showered and in a set of cozy house clothes, he found himself walking into quite a scene.

Just as she was about to take another bite, Maxwell reached over gently took the sausage from her hand, and took a bite
