Sherilyn never expected Jenna's reaction to be so explosive.

"What's going on here?"

Sophia was equally taken aback by the severity of the mother-daughter squabble.

She rushed over to console Sherilyn. "It's wrong for Jenna to accept gifts, but it's not worth falling out over, especially over a stranger. She's still so young, talk to her gently." "You're right."

Pushing the door open, she found Jenna buried under her blanket on the bed.

Sherilyn approached with a smile, "Jenna, it's Mom. I've come to apologize."

Jenna peeked out from under the blanket, revealing her big eyes.
