I nodded while opening the box. In it, laid a pair of bracelets. I took one out and said to Nora, “Grandma would be happy if we bring one back. As for the other, Nora, would you be willing to realize Grandpa’s wish with me? If we pass the bracelets down as a family heirloom, we would be one big family.”

Nora was taken aback at my suggestion. She then turned to Channing.

Channing was bewildered too, then laughed heartily. “Nora, it seems you got a good friend!”

Nora laughed at his remark and accepted the bracelet. “It would be my honor. From now on, we are one big family.”

The mood lightened at dinner.

The day had turned dark when dinner was over.

 

Everyone sat chatting while sipping tea in the living room when Nora asked, “Scarlett, you told me that you have something to ask Grandpa. What is it?”

I almost forgot about it if she didn’t remind me about it. “Mr. Oberick, I have something to ask you.”

 

Channing was happy that he had more of an appetite than usual. He sat casually on the couch and grinned, “There is no need for you to be that courteous. Ask away.”

“I wanted to ask you about Winona Stovall. You mentioned her the other day when we had a meal together.”

Channing sat up straight after hearing Winona’s name. “How are you related to her?”
