Grace came back to her senses after hearing what Ernest had said. She didn't expect Ernest to be such a polite and mature child.
"It's okay." Grace shook her head and looked at the lovely child. He was so handsome. His facial features looked familiar to Grace.
Grace looked at him and walked over. She said gently, "Ernest, welcome to our house. I am really happy that you came over to our house to play with Little Gary."
She put her hand on his shoulder and looked into his big eyes.
All of a sudden, she felt sad for some reason.
Grace said gently again, "Ernest, do you know this is the first time Little Gary brought a friend over? I'm very happy that both of you are good friends."
"Oh, really?" Ernest was a little shy. Then, he said, "This is also my first time visiting a friend's house. I was very lonely in kindergarten before."
"Oh?" Grace was shocked.
