She saw an ice-cold drink on Karina’s side and quickly requested,
“Karina, could you grab me a drink? I’m parched.”

Valeria leaned over and planted a kiss on Rosalynn’s cheek, eliciting laughter from Karina and the

Maggie, who had been silent until now, nodded in agreement.
Sanford turned to Maggie and playfully pinched her hand.
