Helen smiled, handing something to Elara. “I’m off to fish. Carry my stuff.”

An octogenarian lady going fishing at a resort sounded outrageous, but with Helen, it somewhat seemed normal.

Noella got a taste of Helen’s biting but not unkind manner.

“Grandma Helen, have you been having trouble sleeping lately? You seem to stay up late.”

“Sleeping fine, dear. I just look at male models on my phone before bed. Sleep like a baby, though a bit late.”

Noella was at a loss for words.
