Chapter 27 Carl Bringforth Past

• "Have you had your breakfast?" I inquired of Carl, pulling my hair up into a tidy bun and securing it with an elastic band as I entered the clean and tidy kitchen.
• Carl was taking sips of water when I asked, and he slowly turned his head towards me, analyzing me for a few seconds. "Oh my God, Grace, you've matured so much over the years," he remarked, his eyes widening as they ran over me.
• "Well, you've started to grow older," I replied, grabbing the half-filled water bottle from the counter and filling my glass.
