A package was delivered to Starry River Villa the next morning. Laura accepted the package and placed it on the table.
The kids saw the thick pile of snow outside, so they eagerly put on their coats and ran out.
the temperature to drop by a fair amount.
Avery came out of her room in her pajamas. It was so cold in the living area that she returned to her room to grab her coat.
“Avery, there’s a package for you on the table!” Laura‘s head popped out from the kitchen.
“Oh, I didn‘t buy anything!” Avery walked to the table and picked up the package. She was stumped. “What is it?”
“The thing in the package seemed very soft, like a sweater or some sort,” Laura said.
Avery took a pair of scissors and opened the package. Sure enough, it was a sweater.
The moment she saw the sweater, she instantly recognized it as the one she had given Elliot. His return of the sweater signified the end of their relationship. He was cutting all ties to her.
Avery wanted to throw the sweater into the bin, but she thought back to the amount of effort she had placed into making the sweater, and she could not bear to throw it away.

“Avery, you should give it away.”
“No, I put a lot of effort into making it. I‘m going to wear it.” She could not bear to throw it away or donate it. The sweater was as good as new. Elliot must have worn it only a couple of

Laura sighed. “Avery, why don‘t you go and see the kids. They are building a snowman.”
“Hmm.” Avery placed the sweater into the washing machine before heading outside.

“Mommy, help Hayden with the snowman! I‘ll go look for Grandma to get some carrots for the snowman‘s nose!” Layla said excitedly and ran into the villa.

Avery looked at Hayden‘s small red hands. “Are you cold?”
“No ” Hayden grabbed Avery‘s hands. His hands were hot.
“What do you want for your New Year‘s gift?” Avery smiled and asked.
“A computer,” Hayden answered without thinking.
Avery furrowed her brows, slightly troubled. “I will return your computer to you, but you can’ t use it to do bad things.”
In the afternoon, Mike found Avery and said to her, “I asked Chad to come here and hang out with me for the New Year‘s. I‘m sure you‘re alright with that, right?”
