บท 315: Repeated With A Smile

When she heard Grandmother's concern for her, Wendy's eyes got a little teary.

What else could she do?

Reaching out to wipe the tears from her eyes, Wendy said with great self-restraint, "I... I'm fine."

"Where are you now?" Grandmother simply did not believe Wendy's claim that she was fine.

"I'm really fine, Grandmother..." Wendy said, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now."

After saying that, Wendy hung up the phone before Grandmother could say anything.

She was afraid that if she waited any longer, she would cry and Grandmother would hear her.
