A Sentimental Moment with Granny

Tweet

As I promised, I had traveled to my granny's home in the countryside yesterday. I am sure some of you read my post about her previous accident and got cracked ribs. I knew from the start that it wasn't serious. However, I still need to see it personally. At her age 98, we can't be sure 100% that she's fine. In the aging process, it is normal that the skeletal system deteriorates its functions. Bones' structure will be brittle and can easily be break especially for elders. It cannot be denied that we can still be in the same health condition. With these changes in our body, we need to accept the fact of deterioration. To cut the story short, I arrived at her house with the biggest smile. My groovy grandmother has still her jokes of seeing me around. She wasn't a granny who are so traditional. Perhaps it was being influenced by an American culture, she had stayed in America for so many years. However, she decided to go back home and be with us. By seeing her, she seems fine and just some bruises had seen. We were talking and trying to catch up. All of a sudden, she became so sentimental about her age and thinking that she might not reach 100 years of her life. She will have her birthday on June and strikes another year as 99. I was caught off guard with her statements. As a Joker, I tried to make her laugh and said, she has 150 years contract with God to stay here on earth. It brightens her face and laughed with me. In fact, she doesn’t want to live more than a hundred year. While talking with her, I feel like talking to someone who is going to die. But I told her to stay and enjoy life while she is still with us. I don’t want her to think a lot. When I left today, she seems relaxed and calmed. I promised to see her again soon.
