Recognizing her grandmother’s worsening condition, Millie understood she couldn’t avoid visiting. After a brief contemplation, she asserted, “My grandmother’s health declined last night. I’ll remain at the hospital for a few days. Once this issue is resolved, I’ll return. Now, I’ll gather a few clothes from upstairs.”

This seemed the only feasible option to Millie, but Celeste perceived it as a defiance, considering that everyone else usually followed her orders, except Millie.

Soon after, Millie descended with her belongings, only to face a fuming Celeste.

“Millie, must you oppose me at every tum? This is for your well-being and the family’s welfare. Why must you insist on going? Furthermore, your grandmother has been stable, so a brief absence won’t cause any harm. Are you deliberately trying to provoke me?” Celeste’s anger surfaced.

Amid Celeste’s rant, Millie’s phone rang once more. Anticipating that her grandmother’s condition had worsened again, she answered the call.
