Chapter 19: Lying To Grandma

LILLY’S POV

Emal waits till I enter my house before he turns to leave. Watching him from the window, I wave goodbye at his behind as he disappeared into the distance. Heaving a sigh, I prepare myself for what is to come. With the slightest sound, I make sure to walk around the house carefully not wanting to accentuate my presence to my grandma. I drop my bag where it is supposed to be and tiptoe to my grandma’s bedside. Her eyes were close which means she is fast asleep. Happily, I close my eyes with relief, in appreciation.
