"Half an hour until we hit Windcharm Vis."


    "Move it, move it. See you at Windcharm Vis in half an hour."


    "Rise and shine. What are you still sleeping for? We''ll be at Windcharm Vis in thirty."


    "Announcement? What announcement first thing in the morning? Come on, let''s head to


    Windcharm Vis."


    After alerting the others, Fletcher quickly freshened up, changed clothes, and rushed out the door.


    The others were just as hurried, thinking something big had happened. Groggy from sleep, they


    received the call and quickly made it to Windcharm Vis.


    Stuart drove to Windcharm Vis at the speed limit''s edge.


    Having not returned for a while, with Zoe taking care of things, Windcharm Vis was still spotlessly


    clean.


    Entering the yard, Stuart saw a garden full ofvender with a few tomato nts among them, their


    fruits ripe and red.


    It reminded him of the little one happily nting vegetables in the yard after deciding not to rece


    thevender.


    Initially irritable, Stuart felt a wave of calm wash over him.


    He snagged a tomato, didn''t even give it a wash, just rubbed it on his shirt, and plunked down on an


    outdoor bench to chow down.


    When Fletcher and the others arrived, they spotted that sight.


    Fletcher''s cowlick was still standing on end.


    Matthew, the movie star, shamelessly wore pajamas.


    The other three weren''t much better, one even in slippers.


    Fletcher was the first to break the silence. "Stuart, what''s...?"


    Stuart seemed calm, offering, "Tomato?"


    The group exchanged puzzled looks.


    Was Stuart showing off his girlfriend''s gardening skills by growing tomatoes first thing in the


    morning?


    Fletcher connected the dots first, saying, "Stuart, did Wenna go off to college?"


    Straight-talking Jack immediately asked, "She''s still in school? Is she even of age?"


    Sly Brian murmured, "Stuart always thought I was too young to talk to, and now, his girl''s still in


    school? Younger than me, and do they even have anything inmon?"


    Even the usually quiet Samuel interrupted, "Isn''t this robbing the cradle?"


    Matthew, the actor, was slow to speak up.


    Stuart took another bite of his tomato, giving them a chilly look.


    Matthew swallowed his words, switching to, "That tomato looks tasty. Let me try."


    Stuart''s gaze fell on the others.


    The rest were speechless. Matthew, that traitor, his acting was absolutely dreadful. How the heck


    did he be a star?


    That day, only Matthew, who ate tomatoes, was spared.


    The rest were drowned in drink, unable to stand, copsing in Windcharm Vis'' hall.


    Matthew dusted off his pajamas, smugly dragged the others to the carpet, and kindly threw nkets


    over them.

    Then, Stuart received a message.


    Morwenna sent Stuart a voice message, [Hey, sir, Rosefrost University''s strict about visitors. You


    can''t just walk in. I''lle to see you on break. Norbert helped me move and brought all my


    cashmere yarn over. I''ll knit you a sweater, alright? It''s warm now, but when I''m done, it''ll cool down,


    perfect for wearing.]


    Her soft, sweet voice flowed from the phone, sobering Stuart a bit.


    Pleasure flickered in his eyes as he responded, [Yeah, the tomatoes at Windcharm Vis are ripe. I


    tasted one, and it''s delicious.]


    [Really? Next time I''m back, I''ll nt some more stuff. Maybe set up a swing and grow some


    grapevines around it.]


    [Sounds good.]
