[Bonus chapter]Playing The Game

"So what do we do now?" Grandma Vivian asked anxiously, her eyes darting towards the horizon where the first rays of sunlight were beginning to break through. She couldn't shake off the worry of being caught or questioned by the others about their absence and activities.

Grandma Derry furrowed her brows, deep in thought as she considered their options. After a moment of contemplation, she finally made a decision. "We will wait and see what happens. If nothing happens in a few minutes, then we will gather our courage and walk inside to find out for ourselves," Grandma Derry said, "So, for now, let's be patient and watch from a distance."

Although Grandma Vivian didn't exactly appreciate the idea of waiting there for an extended period, she reluctantly nodded, a sigh of resignation escaping her lips. Meanwhile, Grandma Derry couldn't help but smirk inwardly, fully aware of Vivian's hidden intentions. She played along, pretending not to notice Vivian's game.
