"Come on, Grandpa. I know you might not have much of an appetite right now, but Grandma will need someone to take care of her when she wakes up. Just eat a little," Melody said gently. "And Lucas, you too. Don't just sit there. Come and eat something. Now is the time Grandma needs us the most, so we can't afford to fall sick too! Only when we're healthy can we have the energy to take care of Grandma."
Melody flashed a faint smile. One might think she had regained her composure if it were not for her swollen eyelids and red eyes.
"Melody's right. Lucas. Don't just stand there. Your grandmother is out of danger now. It's just a matter of time before she wakes up. Come and have a little something to eat," said Cedric.
Melody knew it was a bit of a stretch for everyone as none of them had much of an appetite. She herself could not taste anything. However, it had been such a long time since they had eaten properly. She and Lucas might manage, but Cedric would not be able to withstand it. He would lose even more appetite if the other two did not join in eating a little.
After they finished eating, Melody coaxed Cedric into resting on the bed for a while. They had already prepared a single room for Grandma on the top floor of the hospital. Melody had stayed on that floor when she was sick before.
There were plenty of other rooms; Cedric definitely needed a good rest. He was getting older, and even if he wanted to wait for Beatrice to wake up, his energy would not allow it.
"The two of you should get some rest too. After all, both of you still need to work tomorrow. You can come back to check on your grandmother after you get off work tomorrow night."

The readers' comments on the novel: The Day I Kissed An Older Man
This book is a good book, but it’s too short. I hope it has a part two👍🏾...
This book is getting boring now. I loved Jeremy, Corinne, Sonny and Lucas. The story needs to end. or bring back more of Jeremy, etc....
I haven't skipped any chapter at all. Though the story is good, it keeps going back to base one. I think this has no ending at all and somehow after reading more than 2500 chapters it's kinda tiring already. They have drained all the thrills....
Great writing! I almost cried when Helen hit Melody! So sad! 😭 can’t wait to see how the relationship with her and Lucas develops though. So tired of the repetitive problems with different people....
Yikes my body tenses so much, my moods change as the scenes change. It leaves me wanting to continue reading....
my heart breaks for melody, so many ups and downs, i shed a few tears when lucas walked by melody carrying thalia, and melody stayed quiet while watching them leave. i find myself getting into character as if im one. i dont remember ever feeling like that in any other books. im thankful the 10 chapters/day. waiting for the next 10...
We have updated progress from 7 chapters/day to 10 chapters/day.<3...
i love grandma Beatrice, there needs to me more people like her in the world straight forward and to the point, no beating around the bush and worrying about offending anyone, why pretend to be someone your not....
looking forward to more chapters, The same thing is happening to Melody as what happened to Luna, if Luna was back maybe she would set Lucas straight, can't wait to see how Lucas handles the situations that will arrive. Poor Melody....
ya Lucas pay more attention to Melody lets see what happens waiting for more chapters thanks...
