"Not really; she went home to practice her cooking," Amber replied with augh.
"Wait, she''s practicing cooking?" Robin asked, raising an eyebrow while looking toward Shirley''s office. "She rushed through her work just to cook?" Amber chuckled again. "Ms. Dunn is determined to prepare a meal for you herself. She''s been practicing for several days now.
"She takes everything so seriously. When shemits to something, she makes sure it''s done properly," Amber added. "Practicing for days? Now that''s dedication." Robin couldn''t help but grin. "How''s her cookinging along?"
Amber paused, a flicker of something odd in her eyes before she smiled. "Um, it''s ... okay.
"Mr. Ramsey, you''ll see for yourself tomorrow night when you taste Ms. Dunn''s cooking," she said, taking a step back.
"I need to get back to work. See you tomorrow!"
Robin watched Amber walk away, muttering to himself "With all this practice, it''d better be edible! Let''s hope it''s not another Vera chicken disaster." The following morning, Shirley arrived at the office two hours early,
