Ashley:“Mm.” Instead of asking if he was free or pleading for his presence, she simply said, “Tell my parents for me.” 

He looked at her, then set the invitation aside.“Got it.” He turned and entered the bathroom. Ashley looked at his back, put away the hairdryer, and went to Sam’s room to bathe her. After bathing, washing her hair, and drying it, an hour had passed. Sam cuddled up to her, asking if she could sleep with her. Given her current situation with Chase, what was there to say? Ashley returned to the master bedroom, gathered her things, and told Chase as she left,“I’m 

sleeping in Sam’s room.” 

He was reading, murmured an “Mm,” without asking further or trying to dissuade her. The next day, after breakfast, Ashley took Sam to school, then went to the office. Grandma’s birthday was approaching, but she’d been so busy with work that she hadn’t bought a gift yet. At lunchtime, she called Cindy, asking her to go shopping with her that evening. Cindy readily agreed upon hearing it was for her grandmother.
