My eyes fluttered open, my gaze resolute as I said, "I'll go with you, Jennifer.
The room seemed to exhale, a collective sigh of relief as I spoke, my voice steady, my resolve strong, as I made my decision.
I know Lina would be a thorn in my flesh but I'm ready for her, I'm ready to stand up to her challenge.
My lips curled upwards with a knowing smile, my eyes bright as I said, "I'm ready, Jennifer. I'll go back with you.
Jennifer returned my warm smile, our gaze met as we stared at each other without saying a word.
"Dinner would be ready in 10 guys," Grandma said, breaking the silence that had long existed.
She turned to the kitchen, her footsteps carrying her away. I stayed alone in the room with Jennifer, our laughter echoed in the building, feeling the atmosphere with pure excitement and joy. Our hands clapped against each other as we whispered, our voices barely above the roof.
