"The BOSS called to say you're back and you wanted to eat the food I cooked." Ava's eyes sparkled. "So, I came over."
Norris Moore was taken aback for a moment. Looking at the hall that had become lively due to Ava's arrival, she murmured, "He's really thoughtful..."
Rufus Swallow walked in from the outside, with a bowl of soup he had bought from a nearby hotel in his hand. He put the soup on the table and looked up at Ava, "Is the food ready?"
"It will be ready soon." Ava hurriedly ran back into the kitchen.
Norris Moore sat on the sofa watching him. Rufus Swallow opened the refrigerator, took a sip of water, and turned his head to look at Norris Moore, "What's the matter?"
Norris Moore chuckled, "Thank you. But I'm really fine, you don't have to worry about me too much."
Rufus Swallow put the water back in the refrigerator, saying lightly, "You're overthinking it. I often ask Ava to come over and cook, even when you're not here."
