"My dad made strawberry jam and apricot jam yesterday night.He told me to bring it over since it's your favorite.You can take it home and let Mr.Shane try it too." Natalie smiled at her words.

"That's great, Joyce.Thank your dad for me."

"Don't mention it." Joyce waved her hand.

"This is nothing compared to what you've given us."

"It's not the same.The things I gifted you were store- bought, but these are hand-made with love by Mr.Rivers," Natalie replied as she took the bag from Joyce.

Natalie stepped aside to make way for her.
