A Feast to Remember
One day, just before Christmas, Eve abruptly asked Lucy to finish the laundry and go grocery shopping for the upcoming holiday dinner. Lucy was taken aback because they usually did the shopping together. This time, it felt more like an order than a request. It was becoming clear to Lucy that she was no longer seen as a guest, but rather as a maid in her own son’s house.
Determined to teach Eve a lesson, Lucy showcased her culinary skills during a Christmas dinner with friends and family. The delicious feast filled the house with delightful aromas and received praise from everyone, including Eve, who realized the error of her ways.
