Abigail’s Second Life

When Abigail woke up, she found herself lying in Analise's old house. Josh sat beside her, looking worried.

"Josh..." Abigail's eyes reddened as she still could not accept the sudden news of Analise's passing.

Josh held her hand. His eyes were bloodshot as he said, "After you left, Grandma fell ill several times, but it was also due to missing you. I took her for a few check-ups then, and the doctor said she was holding on to see you one last time."

Tears streamed down Abigail's eyes as she choked back a sob, unable to speak.

"Abigail, Grandma passed away peacefully. She is almost eighty years old, and she died without any illness or pain. It's a good thing. Don't be too sad, okay?" Josh rubbed her hand and comforted her gently. Abigail nodded slightly. She sniffled and said nothing.

One needed to take time to accept the fact that a loved one passed away, even for someone as strong-willed as Abigail.

"Rest well. The doctor examined you and said you haven't been sleeping well. If this continues, it's not good for your health," Josh said, feeling powerless.

Analise passed away all of a sudden. She didn't even leave any words behind.

"Josh, please help me handle Grandma's affairs for now. I might need some time to recover." Abigail just couldn't find the motivation to do anything right now. "Okay." Josh tucked her hand under the blanket.
