“I’ll go to my room first,” Shirley said. After she went back to her room, she called Ava. At this moment, her grandmother had just been sent back home by the Dawson Family.

Ava was happy to receive a call from Shirley.

“Grandma, there is something I need your help with.” Shirley went straight to the point. Ava smiled and asked, “Oh? My help? What is it?”

“It’s about me and Zacharias, Grandma, please don’t tell my parents about us. I don’t want them to know just yet. Also, don’t tell anyone, especially because of Zacharias’ identity. We should keep it to ourselves.”

Ava had been through a lot and understood what Shirley meant. “Don’t worry!” She nodded. “I will keep it a secret for you. Whenever you want to talk about it, just let me know! But you and Zacharias are really in a relationship, right? That part is true, right?”

Shirley hesitated. “We…”

Ava knew Shirley was shy and reluctant to admit it. With a smile, she reassured her granddaughter, “Alright, I won’t inquire about what is going on between you youngsters. But I hope you don’t miss out on such a good man. I would like it if he were my son-in-law.”

Shirley could only whisper, “Grandma, is it settled then? Don’t tell anyone, okay?”
