Two more very short stories

 Mental health 

B and C moved into the rental downstairs in September.  They had moved back from Europe to be close to large extended families in Canada.  C dropped and picked B up from work while he worked from home.  Good looking, young, bonded and dutiful they cooked every evening and visited family on weekends. C always had a warm smile for her but A was bland faced.  They turned down her invitations for tea and dinner.  She left for UK not getting to know them.  At noon one day she got a call from B’s mother who said C had walked in front of a moving train. Could B cancel her rental?
