"Aiden, come sit," the elderly woman said with a hollow voice while gazing at her grandson.
Something was wrong. That was the first thing that came into Aiden's mind.
The young man rushed to sit next to his grandmother and held her hands. Busy with his endeavors to gather enough money for his grandmother's hospital fee, he forgot that his grandmother had leukemia.
"Grandmother, is everything alright? Are you uncomfortable somewhere?"
The elderly woman burst into tears right away.
"Aiden, oh, Aiden... You knew, didn't you? How long have you known?"
Aiden's heart sank to the bottom of his stomach.
"Why, why didn't you tell me?"
Aiden sighed inside his heart. He did plan to tell her, but not so soon. He wanted to have a working plan on his hand before he told her the bad news. Aiden wanted to give his grandmother hope for survival and not a death sentence.
"Grandmother, calm down. Did Dr. Hunter tell you?"
