The lunch ended up enjoyable for the three...especially for Mrs. Lovat that she ended up being the talkative once throughout the whole meal, she would tell her own stories about her experiences during her younger years which also involves helpful advices and inspiration for Coraline from enduring life problems...
Her topic ended up recalling her unfortunate events of her Grandson in which she would unintentionally exposed Wyborn's extravagant incidents with his friends that Coraline had also hang out with in highschool...and as expected, they would only end up getting in various kinds of conflicts or even accidents because of their chaotic behaviours..
hearing his Grandmother's stories about it made him to flush in embarassment, he would then plead her just to stop telling everything to Coraline, even though he knew no one could stop his Grandmother once she starts talking..
That made her feel envy of him...
She missed them too...
Wybie couldn't blame his Grandmother actually...it's been a while for them to get together with guests in one table again... most of their time as what he told to Coraline, is pretty much complicated. In daytime, Wyborn would have already prepared her a meal on the table since his job involved unexpected phone calls frequently, once he left, Mrs. Lovat would spend her day watching outside the mountain view and stare at the grassy fields til sunset that she would sometimes fell asleep on her rocking chair...
Once her grandson arrived in the afternoon, he would carry her back in her room to get some sleep whenever she felt that she wanted to, he would then work in the garage, Mrs. Lovat stopped talking as soon as she noticed the frown on Coraline's face, she smiled and assured her that someone was in fact with her while Wyborn is not around, Coraline raised her brow and asked who, Mrs. Lovat nodded and told her..
It was Josephine Beckett...
Coraline gasped as soon as she heared her name
Josephine Beckett became Mrs. Lovat's caretaker, it only started when the woman willingly offered herself to assist Wyborn even though he told her not to.. once she would noticed his absence, she would instantly check up on Mrs. Lovat and sometimes she would even bring her daughter Marie along as time passed, it became a part of her routine to always check the old woman, until Wyborn had no other choice but to let her take care of his Grandma in the end since it would be better if someone was there for her while he's gone...
Dinner is where they could only personally talk with each other, even though how busy Wybie could be with his work, he still manage to find some quality time with his Grandmother who she was also felt glad about it..
Coraline felt pity on him at this point...
He worked so hard just to take care Mrs. Lovat..
All by himself...while she...she had her mom and Dad to accompanied each other...
When lunch is over, Mrs. Lovat told her Grandson to introduce Coraline to their new residents living from the pink palace after their meal in which Wyborn diligently obeyed, she appreciated how the old woman offered her to temporarily settle her things while they roam outside the place even though Mrs. Lovat tried her best to persuade Coraline to stay in their place instead..
Wybie placed his grandmother outside their small porch while he waited for Coraline to clean herself
she smiled as soon as she saw how he would carefully would assist his grandmother to sit on her rocking hair with patience, for a second, she could hear the old woman scolding him to let her go in order to do it all by herself, Coraline chuckled at his patience
