“Zachary, Liberty said that you don’t have an appetite. If you don’t eat, you’ll get gastric. I won’t take care of you then.”
Serenity threatened him. “When I’m not at home, you have to eat and sleep well. If I go back and see that you’ve lost weight, I’ll ignore you for a month.”
Zachary said bitterly, “My wife abandoned me and threatened me… You’re so cruel…”
“Yes, yes, I’m cruel. That’s because you always moan that I ignore you, so now, you can feel what it’s really like to be ignored. I’m going out now, so I can’t talk anymore. Finish the food my sister made for you and work hard. I’ll go home before September 1st because Sonny has to go to school.”
After she said this, Serenity whispered, “Zachary, I love you.”
Serenity did not care if Zachary heard it clearly. She hung up and returned the phone to Kevin.
“Sonny, let’s go.”
Serenity greeted her nephew.
Sonny immediately put on his small backpack, trotted over, and said while running, “Aunt Ser, I’m ready!”
Kevin put the phone back into his pocket and hugged Sonny. He smiled and said, “I’ll send you to the airport to take the plane.”
He then said to Serenity, “You and Nana just arrived yesterday. You haven’t even had a good time in Jensburg yet, and you’re leaving so soon.
“Nana is so old. How can she handle such a hectic schedule?”
Grandma May replied, “I need a hectic schedule to keep me healthy. If I sit and eat at home all day, I won’t be in good health because of the lack of exercise. Don’t worry. I’ll stay alive until I can hold my great-granddaughter.”
She knew her body best.
While she could still travel, she wanted to go everywhere. Otherwise, she would not have a chance to do so when she could not walk in the future.
