Chapter 21

Pacing around outside of the room, Carla wasn't completely sure what to do right now. May had to arrive here sooner or later, right? There was no way that she actually went through the trouble of abandoning her. Especially after all the work they had done on her. "There you are,...

Chapter 22

Opening her eyes, Carla wasn't sure what to expect with this room. Four tan colored walls surrounded her, met with a white tile floor. "Ugh..." the grandmother muttered and stared down at herself. The outfit she had been wearing was now gone, replaced with white evening gown wit...

Chapter 23

Throwing all caution to the wind, Carla fitted the hearing aids in. Silence filled the room, a strange tranquility coming over the grandmother. It had been quite a while since she had gotten to hear a lack of noise. Almost always, she was faced with some kind of noise. Nice as i...

Chapter 24

Heading over to the door, Carla gingerly opened it up. There, a hallway awaited her on the other side. Doing her best to not rouse any suspicions, she did her best her elderly lady walk. Still not quite there, it was more than enough to fool anyone who thought she was not an elde...

Chapter 27

Getting led down the hall, Carla took a moment to look her surroundings over. At every turn, she could clearly make out happy senior citizens. Occasionally give her a wave back or engrossed in conversation, it added to the environment. For a few brief moments, Carla felt at home....

Chapter 29

Once the 'couple' had finished their breakfast, silence fell over the table. Carla's thoughts turned to that of the tour. Nice as it was, she wasn't supposed to be here. This was all some kind of huge mistake on the Nursing Home's part mistaking her for someone else entirely. "U...

Chapter 30

Taking a moment to think both options over, Carla eventually decided to just head back to her room. Even if she did get a hold of May, what good would it have actually done? Not much. If anything, she probably would've pressured her to continue staying here to make it more genuin...

Chapter 31

The next couple weeks brought with it relatively little in the way of changes for Carol. She had long given up even trying to call May. Knowing her luck, she was bound to not even answer. "I can only hope she's alright." Carla thought and got up out of bed. Letting out a yawn, s...

Chapter 32

In the hallway, Carla expertly weaved her way through the crowd of people who had visited today. While she hadn't realized that today was that kind of day, it brought forth all kinds of worries and anxieties within her elderly mind. "Grandma!" Looking around, Carla's gaze came...

Chapter 33

Carla let out a deep breath. "Emily, Kayla, Billy, it's so nice to see you!" she announced and watched her 'grandchildren' focus on her. Swarming her with relative ease, a group hug followed. Breaking away right after, it felt good. "How have you been, Grandma?" Billy announced...

Chapter 34

After the visit by way of her grandchildren, Carla found herself a bit more on her guard when it came to her elderly persona. Even if that was just the default mode rather than something that she was pretending to be. All attempts to remember who she was before coming to this pla...

Chapter 35

Getting led to the area of the Nursing Home where the doctor's were located, Carla felt on edge. They were clearly going to realize this deception and then kick her out. She just knew it. Yet, it was still a good idea to play along and hope for the best. "The doctor will see you...

Chapter 36

Heading for the pharmacy, Carla got her thoughts back in order. While that wasn't the news she wanted to hear here, it was a necessary evil. Those were both things that she needed to have going forward at the Nursing Home. Thankfully, the pharmacy was not that far from the room w...

Chapter 37

Even in the face of her partial blindness, Carla headed in the direction of Elizabeth's room. While there were a couple of close calls with her fellow residents, the grandmother made quick time to her destination. Reaching Elizabeth's room, she took the opportunity to knock on he...

Chapter 38

The next couple days passed far faster than Carla was expecting them too. While most of the blindness brought on by the glasses was gone, there was still a bit from time to time. Ironically, the grandmother found she couldn't see anything without them. "This should be the one."...

Chapter 39

Carla stared at the calendar one more time. "Has it really been a year?" she thought and stared down at her withered hand. Quite hard to believe here. Yet, she knew it to be true. Letting out a deep breath, Carla took a moment to compose herself. It took a bit of work and callin...

Chapter 40

Carla Davis stood at the church altar in the nursing home. Hard to believe that this was actually happening. Not only were her grandchildren here, she could even make out her daughter. Trying her hardest to hold in her tears, she was doing the same. "This is it." she told hersel...
