Belle thought it rather a good idea of Henry to request a part-time job from his grandfather. She felt that the two did not spend nearly as much time together as they should. She supposed it must be difficult for Henry to split his time between all his family: he had two mothers, two grandfathers, and an uncle. She supposed he now had two grandmothers as well. It was somewhat comical to think of herself as a grandmother as she was hardly old enough to be considered one, nor did she have any children of her own. Still, she wished to bond with her grandson as well as she could.
"How is school, Henry?" she inquired, looking up from the ledgers that her husband kept behind the counter. She carefully wrote in her neat script an order purchased by Dr. Whale that afternoon. The antique pocket watch that the doctor had chosen rested beside her hand, waiting to be polished and boxed before he picked it up the next day. The brunette hoped Henry wouldn't mind something as simple as small talk to jump start their conversation as they both worked.
