After they left, Celeste seemed absent-minded as she walked, Gary had no idea what she was thinking.
He glanced at her and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Celeste suddenly came to her senses and blinked up at him. "Nothing much,"
"You're thinking about something. We're in the same boat here, so don't hide it from me." Gary thought that Celeste was frustrated over what happened with Janice.
Celeste paused when she heard this then she smiled bitterly. She said, "Aunt Grace asked me to visit Cindy."
"Visit her?" Gary frowned at that. "Mom must be really bored to find it in herself to be so forgiving."
"I think Aunt Grace has her own reasons for telling me to do so." Although Celeste didn't know what Grace intended, she figured that Grace had good intentions.
Gary frowned even more deeply at that. He asked Celeste, "What about you? Do you want to visit her?"
