After regaining her composure, Ellen and Mason set off for her father's house. They made a quick stop at a local bakery to buy her father's and Colleen's favorite cake. When they arrived at her father's house, Colleen was waiting by the door. Her face lit up when she saw Ellen. "Ellen! Mason!" she called out, rushing to hug Ellen tightly.

Ellen returned the hug, feeling a sense of comfort. "Hi, Colleen," she said, smiling. "We brought your favorite cake."

Colleen's eyes sparkled with delight as she took the cake. "Sweet!" she exclaimed, looking inside the box. "This looks amazing, thank you!"

Ellen and Mason followed Colleen inside. Colleen continued chatting, her voice filled with excitement. "I was surprised when Dad told me he invited you both for dinner."

Ellen chuckled. "I'm surprised he didn't bother to tell me that."

Colleen just laughed, leading them into the living room. Mason stayed close behind, looking calm but attentive.
