7. Grandson and treasures
Was a rainy and cold night in Hillwood, the autumn was present, imposing its fresh breeze and colorful orange.
- What we will do?… - The old man asked himself. No matter how many times he asked this question, he couldn't find an answer.
- Are you still awake?
- Yes Pookie, I can't sleep and I see that you neither.
- I'm tried but…
- I know… Gertie… do you really think that Miles and Stella will come back? If they were to come back, they would have already done so, right?
- I'm afraid that I agree… we lost our son… and our daughter. - She tried to stop herself, but her tears fell like a waterfall.
- Oh my little girl, please, don't cry, I'm here with you. - He wrapped her in his arms and gave her a small kiss on the forehead, trying to contain his own tears. - And Arnold too.
- I'm not sad for me, I'm worried about Arnold. He is so young, only almost 3 years… What will happen with him? We are so old and…
- Maybe we are old, but we are healthy and I know that we'll be ok, don't worry. I was thinking, if Arnold is officially living with us… Why don't we remodel his room? Hey? As a birthday present.
- Yeah sounds… a good idea, but, what? What can the little one like? Besides, we don't have enough money.
- Oh don't worry, I selled some things and I have enough money for it. I will talk with a neighbor. She has a little guy as Arnold, maybe she could guide us.
- Sounds great… sorry for my tears Phill… I promise to the both of you that I'll never be sad again, I'll protect your happiness.
- Pookie you don't have to, you…
- I took my decision and you have to deal with it. Grandma Calamity it's here!
- Grandma? Grandpa?
- Are you here Shortman?
- Sorry… I heard voices, did my parents come back?
- Not yet my little but…
- But now your Calamity Jane is here to help you to sleep! Suddenly the old woman appeared with a cowboy hat and put the little boy on her shoulders. - Come on my little horse! - And they ran to Arnold's room.
- But where the hell did this woman get a hat?
The oldman smiled and walked behind the crazy couple to help them to sleep. Maybe it will be a difficult mission, but he knows that if someone could do it, those would be his crazy wife and him.
