Farris stared at their hands, slightly taken aback by her sudden action.
He looked up and stared into her eyes deeply.
Years ago, when she asked him to help her get a kite stuck in a tree, she had a pure and innocent look in her eyes.
So long had passed, yet she still had that look in her eyes.
“Do you want to come with me to my office?” Farris asked.

He let out a small cough to relieve the tension.
“You can come to my office since your grandpa hasn’t regained consciousness yet. I’ll be able to discuss his condition with you.”
He averted his gaze to the floor nervously.
“Oh, okay then,” Stella said lightly.
Farris nodded in response.
Stella trailed behind him as they walked into his office.
Farris poured a glass of warm water and passed it to Stella. Then he casually walked over to the record player and turned it on.
The music was low and comforting. Stella furrowed her brows slightly.
“Dr. Barnes, we’re not going to talk about my grandpa’s condition?”

Farris smiled lightly.

“Your grandfather is fine. We’re here to discuss you.”
“Huh? Me?” Stella frowned in confusion.
“When was the last time you had a good sleep? The dark eye bags have become very visible. Your grandpa isn’t going to wake up for a while.
You should rest here and wait and for him.”
“But…” Stella started to refuse.
“No one will disturb you, rest assured.” Without giving a chance to say anything, he picked up the medical record and walked out.
