same as my grandson, so she has been waiting for him. But the wait has been for thirty years. How many thirty years can a person have?”“You’re right. How many thirty years can a person have?” Tears sprang to Winnie’s eyes. She did not even know whether or not she could live past her first thirty years.After her chat with Josiah the night before, she learned that he had asked his classmates about that certain classmate of his and that he had found out that that classmate used to research artificial eyes.Josiah told her that artificial eyes had been a topic being researched. Alas, no one could reach that classmate anymore.It was not a good sign for Winnie.Nevertheless, she was not a pessimistic person. As long as a small flame of hope existed, she would hold on to that candle.The two of them continued chatting about other topics until they reached their destination.Sure enough, as Sebastian had said, the residential area was not accessible by car. They had to leave the car and walk into it.After many twists and turns, Winnie and the rest reached the old traditional medicine practitioner’s house.Winnie stayed there for almost three hours.Unfortunately, the old traditional medicine practitioner could not help Winnie out. Still, she shared similar ideas with Sebastian, so Sebastian was a little more confident about Winnie’s case.After that, Sebastian led Winnie back the way they came from.On their way back, Winnie overheard a fight.It sounded like a fight between a landlord and a tenant.The landlord was loud. “You have to move out today!

How many weeks has it been since then? Have you given me any money? I’m an ordinary citizen, too! I need to earn a living! I’m not running a charity organization here!”It seemed that the tenant had run out of other options, and Winnie noted that their voice sounded hoarse. “Please, Ma’am! Just one more week! I caught a cold a few days ago. I’m sure you can tell by how my voice changed. Please just give me a few more days to recuperate from this cold before I move out. If you kick me out now, I’ll have to wander the streets. The weather is getting colder and colder, and I won’t be able to withstand it.”The landlord’s voice became louder. “That’s right. I can hear your voice change, but can you see my hair turning white? If I have pity for you, who will do the same for me? My mother’s in the hospital, waiting for me to pay her bills to get surgery. Please, can you just spare me? Hurry up and move out so that I can rent the house out
