“Rachel, your singing was incredible! Even Allan can’t compete with that.”
Lizzie grinned as she motioned for Rachel to sit.
“Con, you must be tired after all that singing. What do you want to eat? I'll grill it for you.”
Lizzie’s energy was infectious, full of youthful enthusiasm.
Rachel smiled, feeling lighthearted in her presence.
“Anything's fine! | can grill it myself.”
“No chance! I'm the grill master here.” Lizzie puffed up her chest with pride. “Tonight, your only job is to eat.”

embrace.
