When Avery arrived, she found her grandmother had passed away peacefully, a serene smile still resting on her face.
Avery couldn't help but think that her grandmother had probably met the grandfather she'd never known in her dreams.
She truly believed that her grandparents had been deeply in love. Only that kind of love and happiness could have kept her grandmother so warm and forgiving, even after losing her husband so young. "Miss Carter, please accept our deepest condolences, the nurse and doctor said kindly. "This is a joyful sorrow. Your grandmother would want you to smile as you say goodbye."
Avery wiped away the last of her tears and nodded, her voice steady. "Yes, she's just fallen asleep... into the most beautiful, eternal dream."
She had prepared herself for this moment. What she wanted most was for her grandmother to leave this world without any regrets.
