Then Franklin’s younger brother, Yancy’s voice came from outside:

“Sister–in–law, I heard you were sick. Are you feeling better now?”

Franklin hadn’t spoken yet when Franklin interjected, “Come in.”

Franklin responded with a simple, “Hmm.

Maggie hadn’t eaten much earlier and didn’t have much of an appetite. Feeling a little stifled staying in her room, she decided to join Grandma Wilson and the others downstairs.

Once downstairs, Yancy asked, “Where’s Isabella?”
