“Does it hurt?”
Hayden took a seat in front of Grandma May’s hospital bed.
“It doesn’t hurt, but I was quite startled at the time, so I haven’t been sleeping well lately. I wake up easily,” she replied.
Hayden fell silent.
After a long pause, she said apologetically, “My driver was going too fast and nearly hit you that day. Thankfully, you’re okay. I bought some calming supplements for you. Feel free to take them.”
“I don’t blame you, Mr. Queen. I was also at fault for not paying attention while crossing the road. I’m fine. When Kevin comes back, I’ll ask him to help me get discharged from the hospital. It’s boring lying here all day,” Grandma May responded.
“Mr. Queen, what interesting places are there in Jensburg?” she inquired.
“There are many tourist attractions in Jensburg. If you want to explore, you can ask Mr. York to accompany you,” Hayden suggested.
Grandma May’s expression instantly changed. “Kevin is here on a business trip and has a lot of work to manage. He is busy every day and doesn’t have time to walk around with me. It’s been a long time since I last visited Jensburg. I came here with my late husband several times when I was younger.”
“Now that I’m older, I want to revisit the places we traveled to as a couple. I want to do it while I’m still alive and able to walk around.”
Hayden remained quiet.
Noticing the fruit on the bedside table, she quietly picked up a large apple and went to the bathroom to wash it. She then sat in front of the bed to peel it for the elderly woman.
When Hayden didn’t speak, Grandma May took the initiative and asked, “Mr. Queen, could you arrange for a tour guide for me?”
Hayden replied softly, “Mr. York can arrange that.”
“Kevin won’t agree to me sightseeing unless I have someone he trusts to accompany me. Sigh,” Grandma May lamented.
“I feel old and useless, and now I’ve lost my freedom. I must consult my children and grandchildren and seek their permission before I can go anywhere. If they disagree, I can’t move at all.”
Hayden sliced the peeled apple and offered a piece to the old woman. Keeping her voice soft, she replied, “Granny, it’s unfair to speak that way about your children and grandchildren.”
