Rosalie nned to go to another city to give birth in secret soon. Before leaving, she wanted to spend more time with her grandmother. Thus, she went to visit Reba the next day.


    Reba frowned slightly upon seeing her. "Rose, why are you here again?"


    "Grandma, what do you mean by ''here again''?" Rosalie pouted unhappily. "It sounds like you''re tired of me. Didn''t you say that no matter what, I''m your granddaughter? Don''t you love me anymore?"


    Rosalie said this on purpose; in reality, she wasn''t upset at all. She didn''t think that her grandmother would be annoyed by her as well, and was just being yful.


    Reba smiled. "How could I not love you, Rose? I''m just worried about you being tired from all that running around."


    "I''m not tired." Rosalie sat beside Reba, holding her arm. "Visiting you makes me especially energetic and happy!"


    "Oh, Rose! There''s a reason I love you so much," Reba said, satisfied.


    "Grandma." Rosalie cautiously rested her head on her shoulder, not putting the full weight of her head on her.


    "What''s wrong?"


    "Nothing. I just wanted to call you."


    ''Grandma, I''m sorry,'' she silently apologized in her heart.


    "Rose, do you have something on your mind? Tell me. Did Theodore make you unhappy again?"


    "No, Grandma. Didn''t I tell youst time that I wanted to travel for a few months?"


    Reba nodded. "Yes, you did. Are you going now?"


    Rosalie responded with an "um," then said, "I''m nning to leave in a few days, so I won''t be able to see you for some time."


    Reba raised her hand, and gently


    patted Rosalie''s head. "It''s okay.


    won''t hold you back. Don''t worry about me being unhappy. If traveling makes you happy, then I''m happy too."


    Rosalie felt a lump in her throat, and she almost cried.


    ''Thank you, Grandma,'' she thought.


    "If you''re happy, I''m happy" were such simple words, but many people couldn''t live up to that.


    Too many people said, "If you do this, I''ll be happy," or think, "If I force you to do this, you''ll be happyter."


    Even many biological parents think that way. They didn''t realize that they were building their happiness on their children''s suffering.


    Yet, Reba was different. She never made Rosalie unhappy, and always protected her.


    "Rose, take the chance to explore the world. Remember to send me videos."


    "Okay, Grandma. If you want, I''ll video chat with you every day so you can see me daily."


    With Reba being so old, seeing her more often would bring peace of mind.


    "Silly child, Reba pinchedN?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.


    Rosalie''s nose affectionately. "I don''t need that. I''m old, and I can''t chat


    every day. Just call me twice a


    week. You don''t need to contact me every day."


    Her good granddaughter had grown up, and wanted to fly on her own Reba felt the best she could do wasnot hold Rosalie back, and let her have fun.


    "Okay, Grandma, I know. I''ll listen to you, because I don''t want to leave you, either."


    Rosalie wanted to always stay by Reba''s side.


    She even had an impulse to tell Reba about her pregnancy. She could imagine staying by Reba''s side, and giving birth to the baby.


    She wanted Reba to have a happy life, and to always smile.
