In a composed manner, Bryson poured a glass of water and slid it in front of Hannah.
“No.”
Grasping the glass, Hannah lowered her gaze, feeling a bit awkward.
How touching it was that Bryson could be so attentive to his sister!
“Really? Hannah’s going to be my future sister-in-law?” Grace’s face lit up with a spark of excitement.
The conversation was veering into unexpected direction.
Quick to correct her, Hannah said, “No.
“Grace, does eating not keep your mouth busy enough?”
At Bryson’s comment, Grace playfully stuck out her tongue.
“Alright, I’ll zip it if you don’t want me talking.”
Feeling a bit awkward, Hannah deftly switched subjects.
“Actually, Grace, I owe you an apology.”
Tilting her head to the side, Grace flashed a puzzled wink at Hannah.
Hannah set down her fork and knife.
“I rushed over this time and didn’t even bring a gift for our first meeting.”
“That’s not on you,” Grace responded, solemnly.
“After all, we’ve met before. I saw you years ago in the tallest tower. Both Bryson and I remember it well.”
Hannah recalled Brayden mentioning something similar. Noticing Bryson’s look, she quickly told Grace, “Next time, I won’t forget to bring you a gift!”
Hannah stayed at Bryson’s family house for five days.
As soon as she felt better, her old teacher called, urging her to start her hospital job immediately.
