She Is No Ordinary Girl!

On the next two days that Aryana stayed in the hospital, she visited Gram Ham everyday.  She would come in the morning after Erik left.

Gram Ham was an engineer and he personally designed a few of the rides of Galaxy Amusement  Park.  He showed some of his drafts to Aryana and Aryana provided her feedback coming from the perspective of an avid fan of amusement park rides.

On the day of her discharge, she visited Gram Ham again.

"Mister Ham, I will be discharged today so I cannot visit you anymore.  Take care of yourself." She said gently.

"Can you stop calling me Mister Ham.  Just call me Gram or if you want you can call me Uncle."

"I'll call you Uncle Gram, then."  Aryana did not want to argue about such trivial matter.

She was just about to leave when Carl entered the ward with a bag of food takeout.

"Aryana, what a coincidence!  Since you are here, can you join us for breakfast?" Carl asked her expectantly.
