"Jasy will do her best."
Chale Cheney, not wanting to upset Jasmine Yale, nodded and did not persist.

After Jasmine Yale made sure his scarf was secure, ensuring he wouldn't catch a cold, she took his hand in one of hers and pulled the suitcase with the other as they walked out of the estate.
The days spent at the estate were serene and filled with warmth, hard to forget.
The tall and the short, the big and the small figures moved through the estate, slowly making their way from the living room to the gate, leaving the estate behind.
The sunlight stretched their shadows long.
