Tyrone drove her back to Starriver Bay.
Throughout the car ride, Jennie slept soundly. But upon reaching the villa, she woke up, her excitement renewed.
If it werent for Tyrone informing Karen beforehand to prepare the guest room, Karen would have assumed that Jennie was Tyrones daughter because of the uncanny resemblance.
Jennie strolled around the villa with her hands behind her back.
Whats this? Jennie queried, pulling out a cat toy from nowhere and showing it to Karen.
Karen explained, Thats a stick for playing with cats.
A cat stick? Wheres the cat? Can I see it? Jennie asked gleefully.
The cat is with Sabrina.
Jennies eyes sparkled. Im going to play with Aunt Sabrina and the cat tomorrow!
Initially, Tyrone had considered informing Sabrina in advance.
But he reconsidered his decision. He was worried that Sabrina might be harsh and refuse to see Jennie.
Thus, he decided to surprise her instead.
The following morning, after having breakfast, Tyrone took Jennie to the entrance of Sabrinas neighborhood.
At that time, Bettie was likely at work, leaving Sabrina alone at home.
Sabrina lives here now, Tyrone said, pointing to the neighborhood.
Okay, Jennie said, nodding obediently. She couldnt wait to see her aunt and the cat.
Tyrone dialed Sabrinas number.
The phone rang for several seconds, almost reaching voicemail, before Sabrina answered in a curt tone, Yes, what is it?
Tyrone glanced at Jennie and said, Im at your neighborhood. Can you come out?
Why cant you tell me what you want on the phone? Sabrina asked, frustrated.
Tyrone felt hurt when he heard Sabrinas cold tone. Just as he was about to respond, Jennie grabbed his phone and said, Aunt Sabrina, its me! I miss you so much. Can you come out and see me?
