Grandma, with a warm smile, said, “My Hayz has really grown up. Well, you’re old enough to make your own decisions. No matter what, your grandfather and will always be your strongest support.” 

I threw myself into her arms and acted coyly, “Grand. I’m so lucky to have you and Grandpa.” 

Benjamin’s POV: 

I invited Bill to play a game of chess.
