"Wow..."
After watching the video, Jenna's tears turned into laughter, "Haha! Really? Jenna... That's my name!"
"Yes." Sherilyn gently patted her daughter's head, "Mr. Johnson made it especially for Jenna."
"Yeah!"
Jenna's smile curved her eyes, and she shyly burrowed into her mother's embrace, "Mr. Johnson likes Jenna!"
"That's right."
Sherilyn's voice trembled softly in agreement.

Hospital.
Gilbert was stable but showed no signs of waking.
"Caroline." Francis glanced at Caroline and whispered, "You just got to Sunhaven last night, and you must be tired. Go home and rest."
"No." Caroline shook her head, refusing.
"I'll stay with you, right by Gilbert's side. We've faced everything together since we were kids."
"Listen to me."
Francis frowned, his tone growing firmer, "Grandma doesn't know yet. You go back first, so she doesn't get suspicious. Calm her down."
Their grandmother was frail, and they hadn't told her yet.
Perhaps Gilbert would wake up soon? It wouldn't be too late to tell her then.
"Besides..."
Francis glanced at his brother on the bed, "We don't know when Gilbert will wake up. We can't both stay here; we should take turns."
His logic was persuasive, and Caroline agreed.
Nodding, she said, "Then I'll go first."
"Okay."
As she got up, Caroline suddenly asked, "Francis, it was such a rush coming back, I didn't get the chance to ask, how have you been lately?"
Francis paused, the image of Rebecca flashing before his eyes.
