7:00 PM: Sheba Breaks Down Before Biggie’s New Game

Away from the rest of the house, Sheba quietly became emotional while sitting alone in the garden after finishing her laundry.

Although she never explained why she was crying, the emotional moment suggested the responsibilities of leading the house may already be taking their toll.
