Caroline stood on the side, completely feeling like an outsider! She was just superfluous! With a turn, she headed upstairs.

"Sherilyn."

Gilbert, having changed his clothes, slid the door open as Sherilyn came up with a bowl of yogurt and granola.

At the same time, he noticed Caroline closing her room door.

Gilbert frowned, "What's up? Did something happen?"

"We had a fight." Sherilyn took a spoonful of yogurt to her mouth, "James doesn't seem to like her much."

Oh, that.

Gilbert frowned, putting it mildly, "She might just lack a way with kids."

"Want some?"

"Sure." Sherilyn scooped another spoonful, feeding it to him. "Tasty?"

"Yeah, another spoonful, please."

"Eat less, save some for me."

"Stingy! I'll make more after we finish."

Chatting away, Caroline emerged from her room, dressed to leave, luggage in hand.

Seeing the two leaning against the doorway, feeding each other yogurt, she felt a twinge in her heart.
