In the blink of an eye, the sky outside turned darker.

“Ms. Robinson, a child is looking for you outside.”

“Let him in.”

The boy walked into the courtyard and stood hesitantly outside the door of the house. He seemed to be just around ten years old, with a slender figure and clear eyes.

She welcomed him into the warm room and asked, “Do you have something to tell me?” The boy opened a pair of eyes as pure as a newborn’s, clenched his sleeves, and said, “Grandma is sick. Raymond said you have medicine, and if Grandma takes it, she will get better.” Hazel had someone bring him fever–reducing pills and anti–inflammatory pills, and upon seeing his bewildered look, she sighed silently in her heart.

One can’t take medicine randomly. What if it’s not a cold?

Hazel packed her bag, put on a thick raincoat, and decided to go with him to visit his grandmother.

She brought a few people to follow the boy to his house.

An old lady lay in bed, with her hair white and tidy, and her face pale due to illness. Hazel checked her and confirmed that she had a fever, so she gave the old lady a cold medicine.

Just at that moment, the boy had already changed his clothes and came out. His clear eyes, as pure as water, were like a transparent mirror. He reached into his pocket and took out a milk candy to give to her.

“Hello, my name is Howie. This candy is for you.”

His actions reminded Hazel of her Leila at home, and she smiled and politely declined, “Thank you, Howie, but I don’t eat candy. Just keep it.”
