"Weren't you up to your neck in term papers? Are we going to get in the way of your work coming over?"

"Not at all, I've submitted my papers and I'm pretty much free these days."

"But with the dog days of summer upon us, and the nation under a heatwave alert, isn't it a bit..."

Madge couldn't hold back any longer: "Don't listen to your dad. He's practically written 'l want to go' all over his

face."

Norris coughed lightly: "I never said | didn't want to go."

Roseanne burst out laughing: "Alright! I'll book the train tickets right now."

After hanging up, she immediately used the ticketingto book two first-class tickets.

When Norris and Madge received the ticket details from their daughter, they were surprised to see the tickets

were for the next day!

The couple immediately started packing.

"This kiddo really rushed the timing... Just a few hours by train and she's booked first-class, isn't that a waste of

money?"

Norris muttered as he packed.

Madge, however, saw it differently, "Our daughter wants to see us soon. A few hours? That's not short. Economy

seats are a pain in the back. She's just looking out for us, wanting us to have a comfortable ride. Our girl spent

her own money to get us the best seats, and you're complaining? Don't be ungrateful."

Norris clicked his tongue. "Look at you, | say one thing and you've got a whole sermon ready. And it's not that I'm

complaining, | just thought we could save her smoney..."

"Save on your own time, don't draginto it. As the saying goes, 'save at home, spend on the road.’ It's fine to

cut back on everyday stuff, but for a trip like this, skimping is the last thing on my mind."

"If we're going out to have fun, it ought to be done in high spirits and comfort, right?"

"Yes, yes, the wife always knows best!" Norris saluted, his realization couldn't be higher.

While packing, Madge focused on daily necessities and essentials, not forgetting to pack a few beautiful dresses

and change of clothes, of course.

Norris thought about all the vegetables he'd grown, all organic and fresh. How could he not bring sfor his

daughter?

Madge watched as he nearly tried to pack freshly dug-up potatoes into his suitcase and was at a loss for words:

"That's enough, don't you think? What if they go bad on the way?"

"And can you even lift that heavy suitcase?" Madge crossed her arms, skeptical.

"How can | not? It's not that heavy..." Norris said, trying to lift it and then... "Well, maybe it's a tad overpacked,

huh?"

Madge rolled her eyes.

"Should | take sstuff out?"

Finally, looking at the neatly packed suitcase, Madge was satisfied.

The next evening, Roseanne picked up her parents from the train station.

Madge shared the story of packing the suitcase with her daughter, and the two of them laughed until they

couldn't breathe.

Norris walked behind them, his face a storm cloud.

"Mom, Dad, that's where I live," Roseanne pointed ahead.

Initially, when Madge learned that Roseanne had rented a place near Kingswell University on her own, she was

quite worried about safety, living conditions, and so on. Roseanne knew their concerns, so she didn't hide

anything, explaining the pros and cons of her place clearly.

"... Though there's no elevator and

the building's a bit old, it's really convenient. Just outside the alley, there's a subway and a shopping district, and

it's close to several colleges." en

Norris and Madge listened as they walked, and before they knew it, they had climbed seven flights of stairs.

Roseanne pulled out her keys to open the door.

Suddenly, the door opposite opened from the inside.

Owen, who had cback to grab sfresh clothes before heading back to the lab, hadn't expected to open

his door and cface to face with Roseanne and an older Couple.

He froze on the spot. Norris and Madge were also taken aback.
