Margot POV
The day Ellen was discharged from the hospital, Nora came over to help.
I didn’t have many close friends, so I asked her to come to my home to celebrate both Ellen’s recovery and our housewarming.
For the past two months, I’d squeezed every spare minute into getting the new place ready.
From the sofa and refrigerator down to the smallest tissue box, I’d chosen everything myself.
I’d followed the colors and style of the home I’d grown up in, trying to recreate that same warmth in an unused space.
Ellen had only visited once during the renovation.
The moment she stepped inside, she could barely hide her excitement.
She walked through every room several times, and when she saw the bedding in her bedroom, she carefully sat down and ran her hand over the cool, smooth satin.
