the love of 阿公

while having my afternoon nap, claire interrupted my sleep,"mommy, 阿公calling u!"

with eyes half open, i answered the call.

阿公was so sweet to ask if joy needed more of the herbs to clear off her facial acnes.

well, he had actually bought some herbs for her 2 mths back, after seeing her terrible acnes on one gathering occasion, and was full of sympathy for this granddaughter.

the herbs are supposed to clear off the tozins in her body and restore her facial youth.

she drank the boiled herbs and is today, looking pretty again.

she joked with me,"mommy, if 阿公 sees me, he will think that his herbs work wonder, haha! actually, my skin renewal is a combination of other products too, like a good facial and using the right pdts!"

well, i told her how fortunate she is to have the love and care of an old folk, who actually bothers to buy stuff for her....and that she must appreciate his effort.

in fact, the last time that the grandpa bought her these herbs, i reminded her umpteen times to call personally to express thks. first, it was exams prep excuse, then others...one day, i had to scold her so badly that she finally 'succumbed' and called him to say thks. but to me, it was not genuinely done right from the beginning...and it was not good!

anyway, joy is having another facial tmrw and i hope she will be all confident to face the crowd this sat....God bless her, i am sure!

btw, both of us are talking about 'how to look slimmer' for the occasion....we both feel so VERY fat, man! i am serious. my weight has breached 50kg and her differential with mine has not narrowed, got it, folks?
