Glinda quickly understood Alright alright Now I can relax
Wendy was over the moon She hooked her arm through Glinda s and said Grandma you re rarely out so let me take you out and have some fun
Glinda s face lit up with a smile That sounds wonderful love going out and having fun

Just as their glasses were about to touch he paused
Through the polished glass windows of the restaurant he saw something on the street outside There was a milkshakes hop across the road and an elderly woman was holding a cup of strawberry milkshake with sprinkles sipping it with such delight that her cheeks puffed out as though she d discovered a hidden treasure
Stanley s eyes widened in disbelief Wasn t that his grandmother
The woman disappeared from his line of sight and Stanley quickly denied it
