Donât Grandda mention now re misses the homemade pies that Grandma used to mare for him during the roicas?
KRET ETTETCETs that there was indeed such a thing her family loved pies, and they would prepare pies during different holidays. The Dies at home were made by the cres.

âYou want to make a die for Grande Keen frowned
I dont think itâs a good idea to trouble yourself. Ater Grandma passed away, Grandca never ate pies again. He would always say frat no one could replicate Grandmaâs taste
How do we know if we donât even give it a ty? Larissa showed a curring sale
In the end, Keven didnât stop het. He thought that even if the pie she made didnât have Grandmaâs taste, and even if Grandice didnât eat it.
he would like it. After alts her snicety.
Latosa and Keren went to the supermarket to get the ingredients for the pie. After that they went to Rolandâs house. What was different from the last time they visted was that the house was decorated festively in bright colors for the New Year
Ben, the old man who had opened the door last time, brought them into the house. Roland was sitting on the couch. He wore spectacles
and we focused on reading
M. Roges, yong rectes, and young madam are backâ Ben shouted toward the living room. It was the first time Larissa had heard anyone being addressed as such, and she found the use of such old-
fashioned titles to be rather peculiar, but she refrained from expressing her thoughts in front of Ben
Keven gave her a knowing look, silently conveying the message, âYou just have to get used to it.â
Then, he said, âItâs difficult for older individuals to adapt and change their ways.â
When Roland heard Bertâs announcement, he promptly set aside his book and rose from his seat, relying on his cane for support. Larissa hortedly approached him and offered her assistance, guiding him back to his seat
Roland was excited to see her and didnât let go of her hand as he fussed, âYou guys are finally here!
Iâve waited for the whole day.â â
Keven slowly walked over and showed him the bags. âLari said we couldnât be here empty-handed and insisted on buying you gifts. Thatâs why weâre late.
âGifts? Roland redirected his gaze at Larissa.
âThe fact that the two of you can accompany me for New Yearâs Eve dinner is already the best gift!â
âWell, itâs not really a gift. Larissa smiled.
âDidnât you mention your craving for pies? I went to buy some ingredients. Iâll make one for everyone to share.â
Roland was taken aback but quickly nodded with a smile. âGreat! I canât wait to have a taste of your cooking!â
