We got down to business after a small talli

Seeing the buswatitosphere outside the office, Troubla't help but ask, There a new project going on? Everyone seems so busy."

"We've taken on a big project, and it's a bit more complex than mal with a wide range of elements to incorporate, So we're more busy." "Well then, I'd better get to work"

Fin the must impressed with yours." "Mine?" Thesitated. With Grandpa's situation weighing onine, participating in the designcontest could delay my refurby at least a week.

Fren handled bis documents and asked, "What's wing? Are there any concerns

"Yeah, something happened at home, and I need to get back soon," I explained,

Eren pashed his documents to one side. He tapped his fingers on the deskahyttanically and pointed out, "The winner of this contest will receive 500 thousand dollars. Second place gets 100 thousand, and the thind gets to thousand " My eyes lit up. I had to save more money, and the prize money would be a huge help in covering Grandma's long-term medical costs.

Eren was satisfied with determined answer. He nodded. "I'll send y

you the contest details. Make sure you're well-prepared."

After thanking him and chatting for a bit more, I headed back to my apartment. On my way, I stopped at the convenience store and stocked up on instant noodles, hot dogs, and quick meals.

Inew I needed to work nonstop to complete the designs as soon as possible and get home earlier.

Once I got home, I called Liam to explain the situation and promised I'd be back in a week.

Liam laughed heartily. "Our stat designer is getting busier buh? You're just leaving me and your grandmother behind to fend for ourselves."

"Shut up," I replied. For some reason, his lightheartedness made me feel more at ease about the delay

After hanging up, I immediately started researching New Year elements online. It took me two days to get a rough idea of my design.

For the next few days, I locked myself away and worked tirelessly day and night.

On the day I finished, another snowstorm hit the city. I felt relaxed as I hit the "send" button on my submission.

I rushed to the mall just an hour before closing to buy Grandma a red scarf as a New Year's gift. I thought about it and picked up another one for Liam. Then, I packed my bags and boarded a plane back to Yardville.

At the hospital, I took the red scart from my suitcase and wrapped it around Grandma's neck. After spending some time apart, her complexion was much rosier than before under Liam's care.

I held her hand and chattered away about my apartment in Napel and my adorable roommates. I explained that my delayed retum was due to my competition.

I didn't know if she could hear me, but I wanted to share everything that had happened despite receiving no response.

"Grandma, it's almost New Year. I've grown another year old. Please wake up soon and look at me, will you? Grandina, I miss you so much.

Liam stood near and glanced at my suitcase. He pouted. "You heartless thing. No gift for me huh?"
