Stella didn't have a good day as she finally got a spot for an interview. But alas, instead of a proper interview, all she had to hear was people belittling her because of the baseless rumors from her previous company without even looking at her credentials. She only called Rocco to tell him about the groceries, because when she arrived home, there were already there.
She was already prepared to fake her smile and tell him that the interview went well, but Rocco didn't even ask. Instead, he just made her laugh and talked about anything that wasn't any life-related matter or anything serious.
He really knew her, and she was grateful to him.
The reason, despite how terrible her day was, she happily worked in the kitchen to prepare her dearest friend a good meal. At least she could repay Rocco by feeding him nice meals.
A satisfied smile turned up on her face as she tasted the soup she cooked for him.
