“Can you hear me, Granny Pie?”
Yes, child, I can hear you.
SHE CANNOT.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t help you. I went to the nearest town, then to the big city, and I even tried Canterlot! But nopony knew what to do.”
It’s alright, dearie. I have no complaints.
I SAID SHE CANNOT HEAR YOU.
I… I can’t say anything to her? I can’t tell her good-bye?
NO.
Why not? Why won’t you let me?
IT IS NOT MY DOING. IT IS SIMPLY TIME.
“I just wanted to hear you laugh once more.”
I…
SHE CANNOT HEAR YOU SPEAK.
So she can—snxx. Heh. Hahahaha!
“G-Granny? Is that…? Hee. Hehe. Hahaha! *sniff* You’re right. You taught me that if I could always find a reason to smile, the bad stuff would never get me down too much. I-I’ll remember that. Thank you, Granny.”
Thank you.
YES, MISS PIE. COME ALONG NOW.
