I have a new friend," Jessica told Taeyeon when he arrived home to drive her to her therapy session.

   "A new friend?" He came inside and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek. "Who is it?"

   Jessica retrieved her tablet from the coffee table. "Here. Look. Her name is Sunny."

   Taeyeon smiled. "So she gave you a call, huh? I was hoping she would."

   "No. She came over. She sat right here, and we talked. I like her. She's really nice."

   "Of course you like her. She's your bestfriend. She was even in our wedding."

   "She told me. I'll look for her when you show me the video again."

   "Great. Will do that. You'll have to invite her back again."

   "I'd like that."

   Taeyeon sat down in his black beanbag chair. "Maybe we could have her for dinner sometime."

   Holding up the tablet, Jessica carefully ran her fingers over Sunny's name. "When can we have her over?"

   "Anytime you want. How about tomorrow night?"

   Jessica set the tablet aside. "Yes! Tomorrow night! What day is that?"

   "Friday."

   "Yes. And I work. But we can go home in time for dinner."

   "Great! Call Sunny. Tell her to come over tomorrow for dinner."

   "Sure. I think I have her number on my cellphone."

   "What will we eat?"

    He gave her a searching glance. "Are you sure? You're still just finding your way around the kitchen?"

    "I make macaroni and cheese. I can cook lots of things now."

    "Yeah from a little help from yours truly."

    "Call her, Taeyeon. Call her now."

    "Right now, I've got to get you to therapy. I'll call her this evening, okay?"

    Jessica jutted out her lower lip. "Okay. I guess I can wait." 

    But she had a hard time concentrating on her therapy that afternoon. Her mind kept wondering to her new friend and the dinner she would fix.

    That evening, after Taeyeon confirmed that Sunny would be joining them tomorrow for dinner, Jessica sat down at the kitchen table and thumbed through her cookbook. "What can I fix? It has to be really good."

    Taeyeon sat down, too. "How about spaghetti? That's pretty easy. You cant go wrong with spaghetti."

    Jessica nodded. "I like spagh
