âHoney, donât you trust me? Remember the breakfast I made this morning,â Brian replied, exuding confidence.
Rosalynn wanted to mention the wasted food from their morning meal but refrained from doing so, fearing it would dampen his spirits.
âAlright then, Iâll step out first.
If you struggle, donât push yourself too hard.
Just call me immediately,â she advised.
âDonât worry.
Just wait and enjoy,â Brian assured, waving his hand as if signaling for no one to disturb him.
As Rosalynn approached the kitchen door, her worry lingered, prompting her to quietly stand and peek inside.
Brian was engrossed in scrolling through his phone before embarking on cooking the first dish.
She could discern that he was searching for recipes online.
Cooking wasnât his forte, yet there was an elegant grace to his posture.
Observing his tall, straight back, Rosalynn couldnât help but smile.
She wondered if he would end up wasting the ingredients today.
However, out of consideration for his earnest efforts to please her family, even if the dishes turned out poorly, she would still partake in them.
âYou actually let him cook? If his dishes turn out to be inedible, Iâ1L hold you responsible!â Calvertâs voice sounded from behind.
Rosalynn jolted in surprise, swiftly turning around and placing a hand over her chest, pouting.
âGrandpa, didnât you tell him to assist me? You must eat all the dishes, even if they taste awful.
â
With a stroke of his beard, Calvert playfully tapped her forehead and remarked, âYou mischievous girl, are you already taking his side?â
âNo, you hold the dearest place in my heart.

Rosalynn gently touched her forehead and clasped his arm, playfully acting like a spoiled child.
âHumph, youâre just trying to sweet-talk m Calvert responded with a subtle curl of his lips.
âSince you two havenât divorced, you can spend the night here.
â
Stay the night here?
Rosalynn was taken aback.
âBut we didnât bring anything with us.
â
âWhat do you need? Everything you require is in your room,â Calvert replied, a hint of displeasure in his tone.
Rosalynn glanced at the kitchen and expressed her concern.
âBut he didnât bring anything with him.
â
Calvert cast a brief glance at her and remarked, âA man doesnât need to be so particular.
Or is it that you donât want him to stay because you fear he might endure discomfort in our humble abode?â
