Upstairs, Eileen and Bryan were packing their luggage. After coming back down, they both felt resigned by the awkward atmosphere in the room. "Grandma, Mom, didn't you two chat well on the phone? Why do you seem like strangers now?" Eileen said, seated between Leyla and Ruby. She put their hands together. “Let's talk, or it'll just be more awkward." Ruby, typically shy, had only managed a polite greeting to Leyla earlier. Urged by Eileen, she felt compelled to initiate further conversation. "You know I've been before?" she asked Leyla.
Leyla responded promptly, "Yes, I am aware. I'm currently dealing with a heart condition myself." "Oh, I also struggle with heart issues," Ruby confessed, placing a hand over her chest. “Last check-up, my doctor was concerned about my slow heart rate." "Slow heart rate can be serious," Leyla cautioned. "My doctor in Alverton mentioned it." Caught between the discussion of ailments, Eileen didn't know what to say.

"It's clear that Gabriela is a bright child. You've cared for her wonderfully." Leaning against the sofa, Bryan glanced at the relieved Eileen and said, "They need a lighter topic to discuss. It's just going to get more awkward the more they talk." Previously, the conversation had steered towards illness, and the awkwardness would return once the topic was over. Yet, when the discussion shifted to Gabriela, the conversation flowed effortlessly.
Eileen, lifting her gaze to look at Bryan, asked, "How are you always so thoughtful?" "People say partners complement each other, you know," Bryan replied. He affectionately pinched Eileen's cheek. "Let's return to the Dawson Mansion tomorrow."

Stella hadn't wanted him to visit her with Eileen.
"Why didn't you mention it earlier? My grandmother has brought plenty of unique items, including a special one for your grandmother. Let's head back early tomorrow," Eileen said.
"Okay," Bryan agreed. Just as he began to smile, he felt a small hand grip his thigh. Gabriela looked at him with wide eyes and puffed cheeks, crying out, "Dad, help! Aunt Bailee is crazy."
