"Henrietta! It's been a long while, would you love some fresh apples? Since it's you, I shall give a fair discount– and an added bonus pile." The energetic man, a fruit merchant, whispers the latter part.
"My, Kris, it's only been a day since we last talked. Then if you're fine giving it to me like that, I shall take you up for your generosity."
"Oh, Henrietta. The kids are eager to play with you again. They're just upstairs, would you like it if I call them down for you?" The serene woman, caretaker of an orphanage, greets her with a warm smile.
"Hehe, I would love to play with them, Miss Colette- but I have to tend to my flower garden. However, I do have something for them: a basket of fresh apples."
