"Hey, where did Grandma run off to?" Rory asks.
"I dunno." Mom replies. "I'll go--"
"No." I say, a bit loudly. I clear my throat. "I'll go see what she's doing."
"She's most likely in the basement." Grandpa informs me.
"The basement?" I ask, confused.
Grandpa nods. "Yes. Pulling out every present we've ever gotten from your great-grandmother."
"But, why--"
"Just assume Grandma is me and Gran is Grandma." Mom states, as Grandpa rolls his eyes smiling.
"Gran?"
"Great-Grandma." Mom says.
I nod slowly. "Got it. I'll be right back."
"Take pictures!" Mom calls as I walk away.
"What?"
"Go, Callie. Or else you'll never get out." Rory says.
I grin and hurry to the basement, where loud objects are falling. "Grandma!" I call as I step downstairs.
"Horrible....Woman....Hate...." Grandma mumbles.
I finally spot her taking out some things. "Grandma, what are you doing down here?"
"I have to unpack some things." she says strained. "Did your mother send you?"
I shake my head. "No, I wanted to see how you were. What you were doing." I explain. "What are you doing?"
"I'm unpacking." she tells me.
"I didn't realize you just moved in. When's the house warming party?" I joke, grinning.
She turns to look at me with a serious but funny face. "You have your mother's wit."
"I wonder where she got it from." I tease. She smiles in return. "I'm sorry, Grandma. I didn't come here to tease you."
She sighs heavily.
"Why and what are you unpacking?"
"Your great-grandmother's things."
"Things?"
"Presents she gave Richard and I for Christmas every year since she moved."
"Oh." I say. "But, what's wrong with them?"
"What isn't?!" she shrieks. I step back, a bit surprised. "Sorry. I'm just stressed out."
"..You don't like..Gran?"
"I...she's Richard's mother and she has done a lot for us but--"
"You don't like her?"
She sighs and smiles. "She just..she treats me as if I'm working for her. Like I'm nothing at all to her but a burden."
"I know."
"Callie, I appreciate your concern but you don't have to pretend to understand. I'm fine and I don't need anyone's pity." she tells me.
