After dinner, Roxanne and Colby went separate ways, returning to their own homes.

When Roxanne arrived home, Lysa had fetched the two kids back.

They were playing with Legos on the carpet.

Archive and Benny immediately surrounded Roxanne when they saw her enter.

Ward said she’s bringing us to plant trees this weekend.” Roxanne was slightly taken aback at the mention of that matter.
