When I walked back home, I found my daughter already at home, miraculously without Anna or Elisa, who are always sticking to her a lot. She was boiling water to make tea while I had yet to get home. Her spring break also began today so she came back home earlier than usual. She seemed slightly annoyed as well despite her being quite calm… I felt a bit afraid to ask, but I mustered the courage.
"Hello dear, is there something troubling you?" I wondered, as I was multi-tasking by taking out ingredients from the fridge to make something for dinner.
"W-Well, I don't think you'll understand…" She sighed.
"Huh? Come on, I am your mother, tell me." I said.
"Hmm… I just don't want to go to the countryside…" She sighed.
"Eh?! B-But we have to! They're your grandparents, Elena…" I sighed. "Don't you remember them? It has been a year and a half since we went there, they miss you."
"Ugh, but there's barely any good internet all the way there!" She sighed.
