Chapter 940
After breakfast, the trio went out together. It was the first time Josiah went to the farmers’ market. He was not interested in the flowers and decorations nor was he interested in places that weres bustling with noises. However, he still appreciated the time spent together with Meredith and Nia.
Even when he was being treated as a porter and being pushed here and there by the crowd, he endured it in a good manner. Other than the flowers Nia like, Meredith also chose a few stalks of sunflowers
Josiah looked at the sunflowers in Meredith’s arms and remembered the situation when Meredith and Charlie visited him in the hospital. Their house had planted plenty of sunflowers and Meredith was never a fan of sunflowers before. Did she buy it because of Charlie?
“Edith, it’s not the season for sunflowers yet. It’s not the right time to plant them,” Josiah could not help but remind her.
Meredith said, “It’s alright. I just put them in the water. It’s enough to last them a week.”
She did not buy the sunflower because of anyone. She only felt it looks nice to have them during the New Year.
“Don’t you think this flower looks better? It smells nice too,” Josiah suggested.
“Daffodils are too common and the smell is too heavy that it can cause dizziness.” Meredith passed the sunflowers to the seller for check out and wrapping.
Josiah could only take the paid sunflowers from the seller and continued shopping.
“Mommy, look!” Nia pointed at an old granny who was selling handmade cards not far ahead of them.” That granny looks like she is freezing. Can we help her?”
Meredith looked in the direction Nia was pointing. It was a very cold day. The old lady was wearing a thick coat but she was still shivering due to the cold. No one was interested in her handmade cards because the design was too old school.
