Ethan was puzzled. “Mr. Thorne, does my grandpa like cherries?”

“I’ve never seen him being particularly fond while he was sober. But when his illness acts up, he would often sit under the cherry trees.

“Now that I think about it, he had someone plant these trees two years ago. He loved to sit under the

Ethan asked, “Does my grandma like cherries?”

“She would eat some cherry jam from time to time. She doesn’t seem to have a particular preference for
