Elise immediately took Robin’s arm. “Now, now, Grandpa, doesn’t it make you happy that I’m back?” “Oh, it does! I’m happy!” Laura pulled a rocking chair over and gestured Elise toward it, urging, “Stop standing there chatting, you two. Elise, come here and have a seat.

These days, it’s recommended that we have babies at a later age for better child rearing. I don’t wanna think about getting married until at least five years later—” Upon hearing Elise’s reply, Laura, choked with exasperation, instantly burst into a coughing fit.

The only memory she had of them was the black-and-white photo displayed on the wall at home. Staring at the couple in the black-and-white photo, she greeted affectionately, “Hi, Dad!
