Maja strutted downstairs, found the living room deserted. She had a phone call scheduled with her company at seven, so she grabbed her bag from the foyer and headed out, oblivious to the gift on the table.

Maria, on the other hand, was tied up in the kitchen, cooking up a nutritious dinner to replenish Maja’s body. So, she also missed Maja’s exit.
