Simultaneously, Noemi, Brian’s mother and friend of Gail, made her entrance.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Rosalynn and Brian followed Frankie and Noemi into the lounge, extending greetings to everyone present. Debora’s face was adorned with wrinkles as she spoke.
“Behold Rosalynn. Today, she appears like a goddess.”
Touched by the compliment, Rosalynn felt a warmth in her heart.

“Thank you, Grandma.”
Debora maintained her smile and remarked, “I’ve always kept an eye on her. Brian, shouldn't you be thanking me the most? After all, it's because of me that Rosalynn became your wife.”
“You're absolutely right, Grandma. We're incredibly fortunate to have you. Thanks to your keen eyes and wisdom.”
Brian’s words brought a playful twinkle to Debora’s eyes.
Rosalynn continued to smile throughout. When she glanced at Noemi, she noticed her indifferent expression.
Fortunately though, when Noemi looked at her, she could not see resentment in her eyes.
She believed in showing respect to Gail.
“Brian, take Rosalynn out to mingle with your friends. You don’t have to linger here with us,” Debora suggested after a brief chat. Brian agreed and departed, his arm around Rosalynn’s waist.
As the two left, Debora turned her gaze to Noemi.
“Noemi, observe your son and daughter-in-law. They’re a perfect match!
Life doesn’t always unfold as we desire. Smile more. When you reach my age, you'll understand. They have their own destiny. Many things are preordained. It’s best for us to let nature take its course.”
She sensed that something had occurred between Noemi and Rosalynn which was why she attempted to console Noemi. Noemi met her gaze, fingers tightly clenched, but remained silent.
“You know, Noemi, we were once inseparable best friends and now we're connected by marriage. | can’t help but think how many people would envy the bond we share,”
Gail expressed, holding her hand with affection.
Still, Noemi offered no words, only mustering a forced smile.
Understanding that Noemi had recently gone through a divorce, Gail recognized that unraveling the knots in Noemi’s heart required more than a few comforting words.
Unhurried, Gail suggested, “Noemi, since you're in Skrix, stay here with me for a while. Let's reminisce about the past, engage in flower arrangement, enjoy coffee and chat. What do you say?”
Noemi, moved by Gail’s gentle words and reminiscing about their once -intimate friendship, sighed and nodded, saying, “Okay.” Pleased with Noemi’s response, Gail smiled warmly.
With Noemi’s willingness to stay, Gail knew that, with time, she could dispel the misunderstandings in Noemi’s heart and eventually foster acceptance for her daughter.
Outside, as soon as Brian and Rosalynn made their entrance, a circle of friends enveloped them.
