Nathan Leafcastle reached out, took the candy, and popped it into his mouth.
"Thanks, Grandma!"
"Why be so formal with Grandma?" Grandma Wave smiled and glanced behind him, "Where are your parents? Haven't they arrived yet?"
"Oh... they have some matters to attend to and really couldn't make it. Please forgive them." Nathan Leafcastle replied nonchalantly.
"Everyone's so busy." Grandma Wave sighed, "Even your Uncle Wave hasn't come home yet!"
Afraid that the old lady would dwell on the subject, Nathan Leafcastle quickly spoke up, "Grandma, where's Vera?"
"She's in the back getting her makeup done!" At the mention of her granddaughter, Grandma Wave immediately beamed, "Girls love to look pretty. On such a big day like her wedding, I guess... she still needs a lot of time to get ready. By the way, Nathan, I remember you brought your girlfriend over last time, why haven't I seen her today, am I mistaken?"
