"Roslyn, are you sure you can hit the set looking like that?"

If Roslyn was not up for acting, maybe a sick day would do her good.

"I have to go back," said Roslyn, shaking her head with a grimace of distaste. "Coral, that drama queen, made me promise last night that I'd be back today! I'm so over her! The minute I get back, I'm going to ask the company to give me a new agent!" Coral Ford was the notorious agent Roslyn always complained about.

Evangeline knew better. Roslyn was just blowing off steam. If she actually got rid of Coral, she would be the first to regret it.

"Come on, you get mad and talk about ditching Coral, but who's been by your side all these years? Grow up a little, will you? If you can make it to the set, then go. If you can't, Coral cares too much to ever make you work when you're sick." Evangeline's words were full of confidence.

She had met Coral, a rare gem of an agent who truly had Roslyn's best interests at heart.

"It doesn't matter if she pushes me or not. I need to go back."

Having scenes to shoot today was just part of why she wanted to return.

More importantly, she could not stand another minute in that villa, and she definitely did not want to run into the guy who had broken her heart.

As luck would have it, the moment she settled into a chair at the breakfast table, Yale, fresh and ready for the day, walked in with a purposeful stride. "Evie, what's for breakfast? Need me to grab something from the store?"

""No, we're good."

Just then, the microwave dinged. Evangeline slipped on some oven mitts and took out the pre-packaged sushi that was steaming hot. She was not in +25 BONUS

a rush to eat. Instead, she placed a plate in front of both Roslyn and Yale, then poured them each a glass of warm milk. It was Roslyn's breakfast request, after all.

Roslyn had a long day of filming ahead, and it meant keeping a tight leash on her diet. Surrounded by tempting treats she could not touch, she was seriously bummed out. Evangeline was not fretting over Roslyn. Her real worry was whether Yale would like the breakfast she had whipped up."

What she had not expected was Yale being totally captivated by Roslyn's puffy, walnut-sized eyes. He did not even clock whether he was munching on sushi or a sandwich. Seeing Yale, who was anything but fussy with food, chowing down made Evangeline's day. She eagerly played matchmaker.

"Roslyn, meet my Uncle Yale.

"Uncle Yale, this is Roslyn, my friend I'm always talking about. Just call her Roslyn."

Both of them just grunted, way more into their sushi than the intros.

After wolfing down the sushi and milk, Yale was ready to bolt.

Evangeline was not having it. She latched onto her uncle and turned to Roslyn, saying, "Hey, Uncle Yale, you're headed back to the Fosters' with nothing much to do, right? How about you take Roslyn to the set? It's on your way." She put on her best pouty voice. "If you drop her off, I can skip the early wake-up call and sneak in some more sleep."

She was not kidding. Last night, she had been haunted by soft cries that kept her tossing and turning. She was really tired.

Yale gave her a quizzical look, one eyebrow raised. "Is she cool with that?"

Before, he would have bet anything that Roslyn would be thrilled, maybe even bouncing off the walls with excitement.
