Tina busied herself in the kitchen making breakfast for Ben, Lucy, and Gretchen. She could faintly hear Ben in the basement as he worked out on the exercise machine. She was so glad he was feeling better this morning. He'd had a bit of a rough night even with her and Lucy cuddling up to him.
She was also so grateful for Catherine's father coming to Ben's rescue last night. She had been so frightened when Ben reacted badly to the news of the man's death.

Catherine assured everyone that her father knew what he was doing as he'd done it before.
