Catherine saw the sadness in her mother-in-law's face. "Mother, why are you looking sad?" she asked even though she already knows the reason why.
Susan wiped the single tear that fell from her eye. "Once Clara will come back, I can no longer see my grandchildren and I can no longer visit them in your residence freely. That is a bit hard for me to accept..."
Catherine smiled at the older woman. "Don't worry, Mother, you will still see the babies once in a while, we can meet in the park or the mall, or we can visit you here," she said.
"Really? You will do that for me?" Susan's face brightened up.
"Yes, Mother. We will just arrange the meeting secretly," Catherine said.
Susan hugged her daughter tightly feeling elated of the offer. "Thank you...Catherine! You truly understand how I feel towards my grandchildren," she said.
