By evening, Lena arrived at the Ace residence, carrying a bag of nutritional supplements and her grandparents’
favorite desserts. The well-maintained courtyard had been recently equipped with solar- powered lights, casting
a warm glow across the space and brightening every corner.
She first glanced into the yard, ensuring that Aaron's car wasn't there, before pushing the gate open.
“Grandpa, Grandma, I'm here!” Lena called as she stepped inside.
The lonely old couple looked up at the sound of her voice. Even the housekeeper, who had been cooking in the
kitchen, peeked out to greet her warmly.
“Is that Lena? Cin, cin!” the housekeeper, Elaine, said cheerfully.
“Elaine, you're busy. Just make an extra serving forat dinner,” Lena teased without a hint of shyness.
Her grandparents, still in disbelief, confirmed that it was indeed Lena. She had said over the phone that she
wouldn't come, so her sudden arrival surprised them.

“The baby cearly, so | had sfree time,” Lena fibbed smoothly.

looking genuinely disappointed.
Lena sat beside him and looped her arm through his. “As long as I'm eating with you and Grandma, I'll be happy
no matter what's on the table.”
“Then why don’t you visit more often?” Edison grumbled, only half-joking.
Lena sighed inwardly at the complexity of her situation but smiled brightly. “Because I've been busy welcoming
little angels into the world. Grandpa, lettell you-I've delivered 1,415 babies so far!”
“That many?” Deborah exclaimed in awe. “Our Lena really is an angel on Earth.”
Lena held her grandmother's hand. “Grandpa, Grandma, it’s not that | don’t want to see you. | think about you
all the time. It’s just that I've been so busy. But my love for you never fades.”
Her sweet words quickly lifted the spirits of the elderly couple, bringing laughter and smiles to their faces.
Outside in the courtyard, Aaron stood tall, watching the warm scene unfold through the window. A faint smile
tugged at the corners of his lips.
He knew she’d only cif he left.

There was no birthday party to attend-he’d only said that to give her the space she needed to visit. She had
avoided him when he confessed his feelings, and now, even after he let her go, she still avoided
him.
At the gate, a car pulled up quietly, its headlights flashing twice instead of honking.
Aaron cast one last glance at the
lively scene inside before turning and
striding toward the car. “Aaron,
what's brought you out tonight?”

Agron Jot fA. Aaron, known for his
reserved nature, rarely joined his
friends for drinks or social outings.
Leaning one arm on the car window,
he replied, “Someone doesn't want to
see me.” “Who? Your sister?” Damon
joked, inadvertently dragging Briana
into the conversation. Aaron didn't
respond, instead gazing out the
window with a pensive expression.
