Twin at university is feeling sick and when your feeling sick you definitely do not want the hassle of cooking, cleaning, chores, etc hence as she has me right up the road who is better to take care of you then family. I made her a nice warm dinner so she has no hassle when she comes back from uni. All her days work can be put aside and when she came back dinner was ready and waiting.
