There's a person named Khushwant Singh in a story. He and his grandmother are friends.

There's a question asked in my book: What is the 'turning point' in the story?

And my answer begins something like this:

'The turning point' in the lesson refers to the turning point in Khushwant Singh's and his grandmother's friendship.

Now here's where I get confused. Did I use the apostrophes properly? If I didn't use it properly, how should I use it properly?

    In this case, their friendship is one item, similar to a single cookie called a black and white cookie. So, one apostrophe is enough for me. But I would reword to "turning point in the friendship between Singh and his grandmother." – Yosef Baskin Aug 12 '20 at 14:51
  • @YosefBaskin Does changing the word to between change the meaning of the sentence or does it remain the same? – Random Person Aug 13 '20 at 10:14

    The word between connects their friendship as one bridge. No change in meaning from the original versions. – Yosef Baskin Aug 13 '20 at 14:19
