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?”
