Benjamin replied: You heard it right. I heard the same thing, too. That should be it.

Anthony didn’t say a word.

The other two cued him: Why aren’t you talking?

Anthony: I was thinking we could visit him tomorrow.

His reply rendered them speechless.

Benjamin: You love dropping bombshells, huh?

Anthony: Will you come with me or not?

Benjamin: Yes.

Denise: Yes.

There was no way they’d say no to his invitation, for they loved to be where the fun was.

Anthony: We need to make sure which hospital he has been admitted to. Mommy’s home, so I dare not check online.

Denise replied confidently: This is easy. Leave it to me! She would get the information by acting cute.

Anthony: Okay. We’ll meet after school tomorrow.

Benjamin: Okay.

Denise: Okay.

The next day, Denise woke up earlier than usual. Terence was busy in the kitchen, so she went to him and stretched her hands out so he could hold her.

“Lazy bug, why are you up early today?” Terence asked cheerfully.

Denise was salivating at the sight of the bubbling soup on the stove. “I smelled your cooking, Gramps. What is this? It smells delicious!”

“Soup. Want some?”

“Yes!” Denise nodded vigorously.

“What a greedy little kitten. I’ll leave you some later,” Terence replied with a chuckle.
