Chapter 43

The next couple days passed without incident. Not that Mabelle wanted anything big to really happen during that time. If it had, it would likely put her plans into jeopardy. Instead, Mabelle spent a good chunk of time in her room. Not because she didn't want to go out or the wea...

"Have you ever considered taking up crocheting?" Carol suggested as she took a seat on the bed. Mabelle followed right behind, taking care to not get too close to her mentor here. "No, but I'm willing to give it a shot." Mabelle answered, doing her best to temper her expectation...

"Carol, can I ask you something?" Mabelle inquired as she set her crochet stuff off to the side. Waiting a moment for her mentor to meet her gaze, that was enough time to compose what she wanted to ask. "By any chance do you know of any activities an old lady like me can partake...

Chapter 49

Taking a moment to think the options over, only one came to mind here. "The bingo hall." Mabelle announced and watched Carol perk up. Good to know that Carol was on the same page when it came to going out and doing something. Heck, they could make this some kind of girl's night...

Entering the church, Carol and Mabelle took the opportunity to take in the sights. Finding themselves in the entrance/reception area, a small hallway led off in the church proper. As for the room itself, it was on the quaint side. "Welcome to the Littleroot Church. It's a pleas...

"I guess it wouldn't hurt to stay a bit longer." Carol announced and watched Ludita light up. Cracking a smile of her own, the elderly lady's focus shifted to her companion. "That works for me as well." Mabelle answered and watched Ludita reach out to Carol's hand. Grabbing hold...
