Theodore had already arranged the food on the table.

“So, you want me to hurry back?”

“Yeah, you go ahead,” Cynthia said with a smile.

“When you called me, you made it sound urgent. You insisted I needed to help you with this and that. I don’t think you really want me to hurry back,” Theodore teased.

“Do you need me to stay here with you? Should I really go back to have dinner with Rose and Grandma?” he asked, double–checking things.

“You should go. Don’t keep them waiting,” Cynthia urged.
