"Do you think it would be alright for us to pick some of the fruit? There are blueberries," Alessandra pointed to the bushes filled with the small fruit.
"Yes. Pick as many as you want. You will need a basket," Edgar looked around for one the gardeners would have been using to store them in. He found one with a couple of blueberries in it and tossed them out before giving Alessandra it. "Enjoy."
"You are not picking some with me?" She looked up at him as he walked to take a seat.
"No," Edgar replied.
"Then I suppose you won't be eating any. After winter passes, we should plant some more fruit trees around the house. It would save money from having to buy them from the market. I would like to tend to them daily as they grow. I bet they would taste much better than the ones we buy after watching them grow each day," said Alessandra.
"There goes my theory that you would have ended up on a farm if you had run away from your family."
