    Some Things Cannot Be Undone


    Grace knelt at the gate and reached through it as she waved at my daughter. “Ava,e here! Ava…”


    Even my deepest grudges vanished at that moment. After all, Grace was an elderly woman who had a


    troubled life. Now, she had to face such a thing in her old age. Still, someone had to be responsible for


    causing this tragedy.


    I felt a tear in my eye as I turned away and gulped. I noticed Ava retreating while Grace cried, “Ava,


    please


    She appeared frantic, looking around as if seeking help to get inside. I could no longer bear it and


    approached the gate. Ava saw me and called out, “Mommy!”


    She let go of my mom’s hand but didn’t run toward me. Perhaps she was scared, or Grace’s changed

    appearance made Ava think she was a stranger.


    When I reached Grace, I reassured her, “Don’t worry. I’ll talk to her first, okay?”


    Grace looked at me tearfully as I spoke.


    Meanwhile, my mom softly spoke to Ava, presumably encouraging her toe over. I knew no one in


    my


    family was heartless.


    Grace pleaded, “Chloe, let me hold her. Ava,e here and let Grandma hug you. Don’t you want to


    see


    me?”


    I entered the gate, picked up Ava, and said, “Let’s


    respect your elders, okay? She just wants to see you.”


    you, and you should


    Ava grew stern as she scolded me, “But she bullies you! I don’t want to see her!”


    I tried to reason with her, “People make mistakes sometimes, so we should give them a chance to learn


    from it. What do you think?”


    Ava leaned into me and looked toward the gate.


    “Ava…” Grace continued calling for my daughter.


    Ava’s eyes filled with tears, and I felt pained. “Go on, sweetheart. You’re a good girl. Grandma came to


    see you because she knows she was wrong. Don’t you remember? Grandma used to make your


    favorite food for you.


    She nodded while looking at Grace.


    I stood up and led my daughter to her grandmother. Ava’s small hand still clutched mine as we


    approached, revealing her conflicted thoughts


    As we stepped outside the gate, Grace lunged forward. However, Ava recoiled and looked at me in a


    panic, perhaps because Grace’s actions were overwhelming. Immediately after, I encouraged Ava, “Go


    to


    Grandma, okay?”


    Ava weakly called out, “Grandma?”


    Grace burst into tears, drawing the attention of onlookers


    I quickly reassured her, “Don’t scare her. She’s already here to see you. Be happy.”


    I nudged Ava closer to Grace, and she hugged Ava, saying, “Oh, Aval I’ve missed you


    miss Grandma?”


    Tears welled in Ava’s eyes, and she even asked, “Will you still bully my mommy?”


    so much! Do you


    Grace knelt and sobbed. She shook her head vigorously, saying, ‘No, no, Grandma won’t do that


    anymore. Ava, you’re my beloved granddaughter! Did you miss me?”


    I was speechless while watching the duo interact. Ultimately. Ava wrapped her little arms around


    Grace’s neck. I only approached them half an hourter and said, “Let’s stop for now. It’s time to take


    Ava to


    school.”


    Grace looked at me with a tear–stained face and whispered, “Can I follow? Just this once.”


    She looked humble, so I sighed and agreed, “Okay, get in the car.”


    When we arrived at the entrance, Grace told Ava, “If you want me to make your favorite food, don’t


    forget.


    to tell me, okay? I’ll cook whatever you want.”


    “But my grandma already made me food,” Ava replied, “I have to go now.”


    “Okay, I’lle see you again next time, dear. Be a good girl at school, okay?” Grace said while still


    holding onto Ava.


    I


    Soon after, I left the car and approached them, saying. “You can visit again next time, Grace.”


    She reluctantly released Ava and watched her go inside. Ava even turned back several times to look at


    Grace. Later, my mom told me she was going to the market and left. I knew she had been quite patient


    with Grace around.


    Even though Ava had already entered, Grace was still staring toward the school entrance. Grace wiped


    her tears and nced at me, saying, Thanks for everything. I’ll go home now.”


    “W–Would you like me to… I could give you a ride home if you’d like,” I offered.


    “No, no! You’re busy, so just go ahead with your work.” Grace wiped away her tears before hurrying


    away from my sight.
