Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

The next morning.

The Wilson family's cemetery.

Theo's garden was the most eye-catching part of the cemetery every year. Whether they were blooming or not, the flowers and trees in the garden grew extremely well. The green leaves were as bright as wax and were exceptionally pleasing to the eye under the warm sun. All kinds of flower heads gathered around, sticking their heads out, wanting to be the most beautiful flower.

The group of people stood in the cemetery and paid their respects to their ancestors and Theo one by one in sequence.

When they were paying respects to Theo, Jasper knelt and kowtowed to the tombstone. He knelt on the ground and helped to place the flowers properly. Olivia knelt beside her brother.

Caleb and Rachel looked at their grandchildren's actions and nodded slightly. Although the cemetery was clean, there was still dust if they knelt directly. In addition, Jasper's pants were gray, and Olivia's pants were white.

Natalie squatted on the ground and took a stack of lettering designs from a bag. She handed them to her son and said, "Jasper, place them on your great-grandfather's grave." Jasper took them and replied calmly, "Okay." Every year, Jasper would sort out the lettering designs he had written for the past year and take them to the cemetery to be placed on Theo's grave, signifying that Theo could check Jasper's works.

There were many pieces of paper. The lettering designs were drawn every day without rest. Olivia helped to take some and placed them on the grave. No one snatched this task. Only Jasper and Olivia were allowed to do it.

Trevon stood before his grandfather's tombstone in a suit and leather shoes. He pursed his lips and did not say anything. He was speaking and praying inwardly.

Rachel squatted down and wiped the tombstone. Even though it was clean, she still wiped it every time she came. "Dad, Sophia, that mischievous kid, is not here today. May you and Mom in heaven bless her to be safe and sound during training.” "Grandpa, I've handed Jasper's homework to you. Check it carefully. The children are doing well. Trevon and | are doing well, too. You and Grandma may rest assured. Sophia is the most mischievous and vexing one in the family." Natalie also said a few words.

Half an hour later, after everything was placed on the grave and tidied up, Jasper helped his sister to get up. Natalie bent over and was about to pat Olivia's dirty knees when Olivia stopped her. "Mom, it's okay." Then, Olivia patted her own knees and helped Jasper pat his knees. Jasper gestured for Olivia to stop. Jasper took a packet of wet wipes from the pocket of his sweater and handed it to Olivia.

Olivia took the packet of wet wipes, took one out, and wiped her hands. She stuffed the rest of the wet wipes back into her brother's pocket and held his wrist as they left the cemetery.

morning? Do you have any other plans in the afternoon?" Natalie, who was following behind, replied, "You guys can go wherever you want this afternoon. You need to visit your Grandma Emma tomorrow morning." At the foot of the mountain, Trevon stood by the car door. He glanced at his son and instructed, "Send your grandpa and grandma home. I'm going to the company. Olivia, I'm leaving. If you want to go to the company, come over yourself." "Oh, okay, Dad, | know. I plan to go to Ruby's studio later, and then I

It feels uncomfortable around my neck." "Grandpa, is your leg feeling unwell today?" Caleb, who was sitting on the sofa, turned around. Seeing that Olivia was unwilling to carry a bag, Natalie did not say anything else. Natalie did not like to bring a bag either.

Natalie stuck her head from the kitchen and shouted at the door, "Yes, okay." Outside the door, Olivia had doubts. She looked up and asked her brother, "Jasper, are you going to Ruby's studio too?" "Yes, Dad asked me to work at the company. | ordered my clothes from Ruby." Realization dawned on Olivia. She snapped her fingers and praised, "Oh, why didn't |

In the car, Jasper drove while Olivia sat in the front passenger seat and sent a message to Ruby, saying, [Ruby, are you at the studio?] Ruby replied quickly, [Yes, do you want to come over?] Olivia replied, [Yes, I'm going to your place
