Riya's eyes narrowed as she waited for an explanation. Lila and Georgia exchanged a nervous glance before Lila spoke up.
"We may have, uh, 'acquired' some of Lita's freshly baked apple pies," Lila admitted, trying to sound nonchalant.
Riya's expression turned stern. "You mean you stole them, don't you?"
Georgia nodded sheepishly. "We just couldn't resist the smell. And they're really, really good."
Riya sighed, shaking her head. "You two are impossible. I swear, I'm going to have to keep a closer eye on you."
Just then, Lita appeared with a tray bearing two steaming hot pies. "Masters, I brought the pies as requested," she announced, her eyes wide with innocence.
Riya raised an eyebrow. "Ah, Lita, I see you're aware of the, ah, 'pie situation'?"
Lita nodded, still looking innocent.
