Chapter 16

"Let's wait a bit longer. Grandma was in a good mood last night. If we suddenly bring up divorce, she won't be able to handle it."

"Although you've been good to me, being with you hasn't made me happy at all. It's not your fault. I just have feelings for someone else. Grandma cares for me deeply, so she probably won't hold it against you if I frame things that way."
