Lucia faintly overheard the commotion outside when she noticed that both Waldo and Stella were missing.

Concerned and ignoring her own frailty, she pushed herself out of bed.

Leaning heavily on her cane, she shuffled out of her room to investigate the disturbance.

As she emerged, her eyes fell on Matthew standing by the door.

At the sound of her voice, Matthew spun around, his face softening.

“Grandma, why are you out here by yourself?” he asked gently.

Tears welled up in Lucia’s eyes as she hurried over to him, her voice shaky with emotion.

“You’re alright… Oh, I’m so relieved,” she managed to say, her relief palpable.

Matthew quickly reassured her, “I’m fine, Grandma.

I’m back now, safe and sound.
