“Welcome back, Mr. York,” she said as he entered the house.
Zachary turned to look at her and hummed in response. After locking the door behind him, he approached her and asked, “Did you just get home?”
“Jasmine had to leave early, so I was on duty at the shop tonight. I usually get home around half-past eleven. I’m making mac and cheese for supper. Would you like some?”

Since he declined supper, Serenity made herself a plate of mac and cheese. Noticing that Zachary was quietly seated on the sofa without turning on the TV or looking at his phone, she sensed that he was preoccupied. Concerned, she asked, “Is something on your mind, Mr. York?”

“Should I wash the jacket and tie for you?”
“No, just hang them up. I’ll take care of the laundry later.”
The couple had their own washing machines in their rooms and managed their own laundry.
After hanging up the suit jacket,
As instructed, Serenity sat down at the dining table. While enjoying her mac and cheese, she pulled out her phone to scroll through the news.
“Is my maneki-neko ready?” Zachary asked unexpectedly.
