Chapter 77
“Grandma, I miss Mommy,” said Nia as she had her eyes fixed on the door of the ward.
Feeling sorry for her granddaughter, Alayna stroked the back of Nia’s head and comforted her, “Your mommy is still at work and I’m sure that she’ll come to visit once she’s done with work.
Nia had not seen Meredith for days and of course, she was missing Meredith. But Josiah had no plans of letting Meredith go. Feeling puzzled, Nia asked, “Grandma, why are daddy and mommy both busy with work and have got no time for me?” “Because your parents love you a lot and they’re working hard to earn money to pay for your treatment.”
“I see.” Nia nodded her head obediently.
She then looked at Alayna and asked, “Grandma, I want to go downstairs to wait for daddy and mommy, can I?”
Alayna did not know what to do.
Nia thought that Alayna was worried that she would catch a cold hence she quickly put on a jacket and said, “Look grandma, I won’t catch a cold if I wear this.”
Aside from worrying that Nia would catch a cold, Alayna mostly felt sorry for her.
Nia knew well that her parents would not show up but she still insisted on waiting for them at the entrance. The feeling of disappointment might be too heavy for a young child like Nia to bear.
