As Waylon spoke, his eyes reddened. Though Natalie was already a mother of two, she had never gone through what her parents had; yet she could still feel their pain deep in her heart.

“Alright.”

Waylon nodded. Natalie went to the bathroom, filled a basin with warm water, and used a damp towel to gently wipe Ruby’s face and hands; then she carefully smoothed out her mother’s hair.

Ruby must have been a beauty once–but the years of grief over her lost child, and the endless, relapse of her illness, had left faint traces of age and exhaustion on her face.
