61

Cherry was getting ready to go out on a late evening to buy new slippers. Her current pair seemed to have developed a habit of mysteriously getting cut.

She finished dressing and was applying a bit of powder and cologne when she heard the front door open, followed by voices. Lots of voices. She recognized Jake's voice instantly, and her heart skipped a beat. Then, Jerald's voice and, of course, her twin...accompanied by Berezira. They had arrived in full force.

She sighed and tried to ignore them.

Cherry slipped her legs into her only surviving slippers and made her way downstairs. She found them making themselves comfortable in the living room.

When their eyes met, Cherry glared at all of them. However, when her gaze met Berezira's, she couldn't maintain her stern expression, and she smiled at the girl. Berezira returned the smile.

Then, Cherry walked out the door, making a conscious effort not to steal a glance at Jake.
