When the doctor told us the results, Grace seemed even more nervous than me, but she smiled and held my hand to comfort me, pretending to be calm. It was only when she heard that it was benign that she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

That afternoon, Grace went to the doctor and agreed on a date for the operation and paid the necessary fees for me.

I wrote her an IOU, but she didn't accept it. She just told me to rest and recover.

Soon, it was the day of the operation.

Grace came early in the morning to accompany me and told me not to be afraid.

When I woke up from anesthesia, it was already evening. Grace was lying on the side of my bed asleep, with moonlight pouring in through the window and shining on her. I couldn't help but raise my hand and try to touch her back.

As far as I could remember, I had never received such attentive care from my mom. I remembered when I had a high fever when I was a child, I was so dizzy that I couldn't walk steadily. I begged my mom to take me to the clinic for an injection, but she just threw me my ID while lying in bed watching TV, asking me to go by myself. To this day, I still remembered walking to the clinic holding onto the wall a little bit. The usual two-minute walk seemed to be as long as two centuries that day. I didn't even remember if I fainted on the way.

Feeling my movement, Grace woke up immediately.

She raised her head, looking a bit tired, "Sweetie, you finally woke up. How are you feeling? Are you uncomfortable anywhere? The doctor said the surgery was successful. After a few days of observation, you can be discharged right away if there's no problem!"

I stared at Grace, tears streaming down my face.

I didn't cry when I knew I was sick, and I didn't cry when my mom told me to go to hell But now, seeing Grace's caring face, I couldn't help but burst into tears.

Seeing me crying, Grace panicked, "What's wrong? Where do you feel uncomfortable? Let me call the doctor for you."

I quickly grabbed her hand which was about to press the button, "Aunt, I'm fine. I'm just so happy to see you here."

After saying that, the two of us stared at each other and burst into laughter.

"You scared me!" Grace scolded.
