Ellinor shot him a smile and replied cheerfully. “Hi, old Mr. Bagley. I’m Ellinor I just turned twenty this year”
Old Mr. Bagley squinted his old eyes and gazed at her intently. “Twenty, huh? And who are your folks?”
“I come from a plain Jane family You probably don’t know my parents, but they’re alive and kicking. They live in Greenhaven Ellinor answered
If pushed further, she would say she belonged to the Mendoza family She didn’t consider them her kin, but she didn’t want to spill the beans about her real family situation here and raise eyebrows

Old Mr. Bagley gave a nod, “Did my wife scare you earlier? You look a bit like our long–lost daughter and granddaughter, so she got a bit too excited”
Ellinor smiled back, “No worries, she didn’t scare me I totally get where old Mrs. Bagley is coming from. It’s an honor to resemble your daughter and granddaughter”
Old Mr. Bagley took in Ellinor’s poised demeanor and her attire.
She wasn’t decked out like other young gals, flaunting skin even in the dead of winter.
She wore a simple white shirt with straight pants. She looked low–key and not overly dolled up for the party, but she had a vibrant energy, the kind of get–up–and–go that was rare among young folks these days.
Old Mr. Bagley found himself warming to Ellinor at their first encounter. He gave a serious nod before asking her.
“Ms Mendoza, you mentioned your parents live in Greenhaven. How about your grandparents? Are they there too?”
Ellinor shook her head. “I don’t have any grandparents. I never met them.”
There was a hint of tenderness in old Mr. Bagley’s eyes as he looked at Ellinor, “In that case, would you be willing to.”
“Ellinor, you made it! Didn’t expect to see you at my grandpa’s birthday bash!” Patricia interrupted, greeting Ellinor with a grin.
She did this on purpose because she knew what old Mr. Bagley was about to say and she wouldn’t stand for it.
Old Mr. Bagley was about to ask Ellinor if she’d be willing to become his granddaughter.

Because old Mrs. Bagley’s dementia had been worsening over the years, she had been mumbling the names of their long–lost daughter Marlinie and granddaughter Pearl all day long, having forgotten almost everything else.
So, over the years, Old Mr. Bagley had been eyeing girls who bore some resemblance to their missing daughter or granddaughter, hoping to find someone who could keep old Mrs. Bagley company and ease her condition.
But old Mr. Bagley had high standards. He wasn’t satisfied with any of the girls who came knocking, nor with the ones introduced by friends and family. The issue remained unsolved.
Patricia firmly believed that if she tried hard enough to mimic the habits and character of the Bagleys‘ missing daughter and granddaughter and made herself look as much like Marlinie Bagley’s old photos as possible, she could win their hearts.
But the reality was different. The Bagleys never gave her a second look.
