Welcoming a Teammate

To prepare for Minten’s visit, Lohrei has cleaned his living space. He expressed enthusiasm about giving Minten a present on Christmas morning. “We’ll make sure he has something to open,” Lohrei said, hinting at a stylish gift for his teammate. He noted Minten’s need for a new shirt to refresh his wardrobe.
A Cozy Christmas for Kastelic
