When I reached the estate, my thoughts were no longer tangled in worries about Luke or Anna. My mind turned instead to my grandmother.

If I had known that last week before the wedding would be the final time I saw her, I would have spent every moment with her. I would have made sure to cherish those last days. Now, nearly a month had passed. I wondered if her health had improved at all.

Luke arrived at the estate and asked for permission to see Penelope. After getting the nod, he stepped inside, a warm smile on his face.

"Penelope, I've come to visit."

Fearing that his delay might be noted, he quickly added, "I got held up with some matters. I sent Chloe ahead to check on you. How are you feeling?"

Penelope didn't respond. Instead, a glass flew through the air, aimed directly at Luke.

Her strength was not what it used to be. The glass missed him and shattered on the floor at his feet.

Luke understood she was still upset about him abandoning the wedding. Feeling guilty, he wasn't angered. He moved closer to her with steady resolve.
