Housewarming Party

Two Weeks Later

The day dawned bright and warm, a perfect Saturday morning for moving. Harry had been at Tom's place since early in the morning to help Jade pack the last of her belongings.

Cardboard boxes, taped and labeled, were stacked outside the front door, and the faint sound of rustling echoed through the house as Jade and Harry made final preparations.

Her stuff had been delivered from Varis earlier in the week but had been brought down to Tom's place because her new place had been undergoing maintenance.

"Are you sure you've got everything?" Tom asked, hoisting a box labeled "Kitchen" into his arms.

Jade glanced around the now-bare bedroom, memories of the past few weeks flitting through her mind. She gave a firm nod. "Yeah, I think so. Thanks for helping, Tom."
