The hall was very tranquil, except for the Buddhist music played at a low volume.
“Grandma.” Carlos had ssupplements he had bought for his grandma.
He nodded and gestured for Tristan to give them to a nearby maid.

Valerie and Carlos sat on the sofa together. She asked with concern,
“So how are you feeling? Fully recovered?”
Carlos gave her a smile and assured her, “Yes. Don’t worry about me,
Grandma. No more medicines.” After a while, he added, “But I still need regular injections.”

“You and Debbie back together?” she asked.

“She’s an adorable girl. She looks Like Debbie, but she acts Like me.”
