The rustle of leaves echoed through the autumn air as Eleanor saw Ms. Davis approaching, her hands clasped in front of her. "I'm trying to grow some flowers for my granddaughter," Ms. Davis began, her voice barely a whisper. "But I haven't got much sun."

She practically bounded across the lawn, eager to show Ms. Davis the prime location for her flowerbeds. She offered to help with all of it.
