"You don't have to." Nolan shook his head.
Mrs. Wallace Sr. gave them a look of puzzlement. "Why? You said they were delicious."
"It's not that. Making those muffins is a lot of work. We can help out next time," Lana chimed in.
Mrs. Wallace Sr. laughed heartily, her mouth wide in amusement. "Such good kids. Just like your mom,
always caring for others from a young age."
"Well, we are Mommy's kids," Nolan and Lana replied with a hint of pride.
Their playful attitude made Mrs. Wallace Sr. burst into laughter, thoroughly enjoying the moment with
them.
"I can make them too. Next time, we'll do it for you," Tia said, emerging from the small kitchen, her eyes
twinkling as she brought a plate of fruits to them.
Nicole took the plate. "Your leg is hurt. Go treat it before it gets worse."
"It's fine," Tia replied, cheeks reddening in embarrassment." It's just a minor bump. No big deal."
"Go apply some ointment on it. You need to take care of yourself so that you can look after Grandma,"
Nicole said with a hint of firmness.
Tia nodded. "Alright, Nicole. I'll do that now."
She then made her way out of Mrs. Wallace Sr.’s room to her own.
After a moment, Mrs. Wallace Sr. voiced her concerns." What happened to Tia?"
"She bumped her leg when she was delivering the mini muffins to us. It's not a severe injury, but if she
doesn't take care of it, it might get worse. Don't worry, Grandma," Nicole said, trying to comfort Mrs.
Wallace Sr.
"Oh, in that case, she should rest up tomorrow. I can make some food," Mrs. Wallace Sr. said with
concern.
Nicole thought for a moment, and then she said, "How about this. I'll arrange for food delivery
tomorrow. Tia can cook for you again when she gets better."
"That sounds good," Mrs. Wallace Sr. agreed.
Nicole then sat down with Mrs. Wallace Sr., whereupon they began sharing stories from her childhood, This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
filling the room with laughter from Mrs. Wallace Sr.. After a while, Nicole called it a night, concerned for
her well-being.
"I'll help you rest up. Grandma. Then, I'll check on Tia before heading home," Nicole said.
"Alright. Make sure you, Nolan, and Lana get some rest too," she advised.
"Goodnight, Great grandma," Nolan and Lana added.
In response, she gave them a warm smile. "Goodnight."
After tucking Mrs. Wallace Sr. into bed, Nicole promised," Well visit again soon."
"Okay," she replied, her gaze following Nicole, Nolan, and Lana.
She only closed her eyes once they were out of sight.
As Nicole approached Tia's room, she saw the door ajar. Through the gap, she spotted Stanley gently
tending to Tia's bruise. A knowing smile crossed Nicole's face when she realized that Tia was in good
hands. Opting not to enter, she continued on with Nolan and Lana.
Inside, as Stanley carefully applied the ointment on her leg, he said, "Take it easy and rest for the next
couple of days."
"I'm fine, really," Tia murmured, her voice reduced to almost a whisper.
Stanley's tone was firm. "You should focus on recovering. I'll ensure that Mrs. Wallace is taken care of.
If that bruise swells up by tomorrow, we're heading to the hospital."
