”Serenity, what’s all this?”
Callum had detected the smell of seafood.
“It’s seafood. A friend of mine brought it back after holidaying by the beach. She gave me a lot. They’re all fresh, and your brother and I can’t eat that much, so I’m giving some to you guys to bring home and eat.”
Callum stole a glance at his nana. Seeing that she was not declining it, he said, “This is a lot.”
Seafood was something their family lacked the least.
However, since it was given to him by his sister-in-law, he best helped bring them home.
“Nana, don’t forget to give everyone a portion to try.”
Serenity had meticulously prepared a portion for each family unit, contained in individual nets. After getting home, all Grandma May had to do was to hand it out portion by portion. They were equally divided.
“Alright, I will.”
Grandma May waited for Callum to put the seafood in the trunk before getting in the car. She then said to Serenity, “Serenity, I texted Zack earlier, telling him to come over and eat with you before going back to the company to work.
“He should already be on his way over. Callum works at the same company and Callum’s already here. You should hurry and make dinner. You don’t have to send us off.”
Serenity was speechless for a moment. “Nana, you should have said so earlier. I was planning to heat up the leftovers from lunch and there’s only enough for myself.”
“If you start preparing dinner now, you’ll still make it in time. Go on! Zack always works super late. Cook a few extra dishes for him and make sure he fills his stomach,” Grandma May said.
Serenity could not say no to Grandma May’s face.
After sending her off, Serenity was left alone in the bookshop.
She hurriedly picked up her phone to text Zachary to tell him not to come over because she was too lazy to cook for him, but only remembered that she had deleted his number after opening her messages. No, wait! He deleted her number first.
After thinking about it, Serenity decided to unblock Zachary’s number.
