"Sage, what are you worried about? I'm still pretty healthy. I don't need you to hold me," Donald chirped.
Sage rested her head on his arm and said, "Well, just think of it as you helping me to walk!"
Donald curiously asked, "Sage, is there something on your mind? Why do I feel like something has changed in you lately?"
She did not deny it. "Is it a good or bad change?"
Feeling sorry, he patted her on the shoulder. "I don't need you to be understanding and obedient all the time. You can live life any way you want as long as it makes you happy."
She felt a lump in her throat upon hearing his remark. Tears brimmed in her eyes. Donald had always doted on her. He'd never blame her no matter what mistakes she had made.
"Why are you crying? What's troubling you?" Donald inquired.
She wiped away her tears and shook her head. "Nothing. I just feel sorry. I only had Ian in my eyes and did not pay much attention to you in the past."
Donald broke into a smile. "You little fool. I'm happy for you because you found someone you love."
She was about to reply to him when they were interrupted by a scream. Right after that, a motorcycle came speeding in their direction.
Sage felt her chest tightening in fear, and she grabbed Donald intending to run to safety. After they moved away, the motorcycle dashed past the spot they had been standing at just moments ago.
Right when she was about to let out a sigh of relief, she spotted another motorcycle coming at them.
"Grandpa, look out!" Sage yelled. At the same time, she reflexively snatched a traffic cone from the street and hurled it at the motorcyclist.
The motorcyclist was hit in the head and braked immediately. The tires screeched loudly from the friction with the surface of the road.
