"Gilbert, I've been ignoring Sherilyn for you for four years! Can't you do this one thing for me?" Sylvia's voice was with urgency. "I'm about to undergo surgery. Do you wantto worry about this now?" "Grandma, what are you talking about?" Left with no choice, Gilbert had to agree to her demands. "She left just a while ago. I'll go after her, okay?" "That's more e like it!" Sylvia quickly replied.
