Linda comes home from school to find her parents saddened and subdued. They tell her that her grandmother, who had suffered a stroke, had died during the day. Throughout the next few days Linda experiences many strong emotions. She feels guilt and separation at the loss as well as support and comfort from her parents and the relatives who come to help. Through the experience of the funeral, the love of her parents, and the explanation of death by her mother and father, Linda's fears are lessened, and she comes to accept her grandmother's death. In a final poignant scene Linda and her mother join hands and cry together in the realization that Grandmother will never come back but will live in their memories.

Becky's parents are separated, uncertain of what will become of their marriage and their lives.
On the day that her father is flying into town to see them for the weekend, Becky's mother drives her and her younger brother Cory to the airport. The mother is anxious and distracted, Becky is confused and frightened, and Cory restless and innocent of the troubles around him. All along the way Becky questions her mother with growing intensity about why "people fall out of love" and what is going to happen to them if there is a divorce. Edgy about seeing her husband again, the mother cannot find the patience to answer the questions to Becky's satisfaction. In spite of her mother's reassurance that both her parents love her very much, Becky imagines fantastically the frightening consequences of divorce. These nightmarish episodes reveal Becky's feelings of fear, anger, and guilt, and are contrasted with the happy times that she remembers from the days when her parents were still in love. When the father arrives, he embraces the children and then haltingly takes his wife's hand. As they leave the airport together, there is no way of knowing whether a reconciliation is still possible or whether all of them will yet have to grope through the pain of divorce.
