When There Is Nothing Left But Love (Ashton And Scarlett)

Looking at the two people in the kitchen, I chirped, “Hey guys, can I help with anything?”

“No, no, no,” Nora replied with a grin. “As I said, you’re a patient today. Just have a good rest and don’t come in here. The kitchen is greasy as hell. Shoo, shoo!”
