After countless days of searching and searching, Riley ended up finding a retirement home called "The old folks home". It took her about an hour to drive her grandpa there though, because it was in the suburbs. On the way their, she stopped at her grandparents house, to collect her grandfather's things. After they left, they stopped at a McDonalds not far away. Riley ordered a cheeseburger and fries, and her grandpa (Frank) ordered a Big Mac. There were so many people there that they had to leave a name with the employees so they didn't mix up orders.
After waiting about 10 minutes, they were finally called to the front to collect their food.
"Frank!"
"It's about time".
Riley mouthed a quiet "thank you" and scurried out of the crowd in pursuit of her grandfather. They looked around for an open table, and finally decided on a window booth.
They sat down and started talking about how he was going to be pretty far away from Riley, and they wouldn't get to see each other very often, blah, blah, blah.
As they finished up. Riley took their tray and emptied the contents into the trash.
They then exited, leaving for the final haul of the journey before they got to "the old folks home".
When they arrived there about half an hour later, Riley tried to help her grandfather unpack, which took about 2 hours.
After getting her grandfather situated, Riley went out for a stroll. She wandered the town aimlessly, until she was in the suburbs and saw an advertisement in the window of a nearby Walgreens. She went inside to get a closer look and saw exactly what she thought. It was an advertisement for "Valentine's Day 2015".
