"Yeah.... it's time for you to leave. . . "
Thea approached Great-Uncle Silas. "Great-Uncle, I'm heading out now.." she stated gently.
"Next time, make it a longer visit. . " he murmured. .
Thea grinned. "Yes, Great-Uncle.Next time I will stay longer.."
As Thea got ready to depart, Grandma Grace walked with her to the gate. "Remember, look after yourself and give me a call soon. . " she said, her tone wavering slightly.
Thea embraced her grandmother firmly. "I will, Grandma. You take care of yourself as well, and remember your medicine. "
Thea picked up her suitcase and said goodbye to her grandmother, waving farewell before departing.
"Call me when you get there. . " Grandma urged her.
"Sure, Grandma..." Thea's voice faded as she walked away.
The subway station was merely a 20-minute walk from her great-uncle's house, and Thea chose to take advantage of the chance to explore her surroundings.She walked at a relaxed pace, taking in the sights and sounds of the area.
