Adventure In The Dark
Tragedy 284 - Grandma was once young
...***...
"Grandma knows what I'm doing."
"Why? Is that right, Grandma's guess?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Then, who are you waiting for? Your lover? Are you waiting for news from him?"
"Haha, why is Grandma's guess always right? Can my grandmother read my mind? Then try to read my mind what I'm thinking right now." Lucia gave a small joke. Claire could only chuckle in response to the words of Lusia who was now even teasing her.
"Hahaha, come. You think this grandma is a fortune teller?"
"Then, why is every grandmother's guess always right?"
"Grandmother was also once young, and grandmother also had two daughters. So grandma knows how the characteristics of a girl who is in love, especially at a young age like you. In addition, the grandmother also lives in a teenage children's environment full of romance. Grandma has memorized it."
"Yes, grandma is an expert. The proof is that grandma knows what I've been doing since."
"So, right?"
"Truely, I'm happy to wait for news from my lover."
"really? Who is the man who broke your heart? Don't you always keep your distance from men?"
"Yes, but he's different from all the guys I've ever met. The first time I saw him, my heart was already pounding. He had a handsome face, a smile that was so dazzling, full of charisma, a very accomplished, gentle, and considerate figure."
"He's too perfect for a man, is there such a man in the real world?"
"There's."
"Then, you're very lucky to have such a perfect man. Don't let go of him, or you'll regret it."
"I won't let go, because I've waited long enough to be with her."
Lucia's face blushed. He never thought until there. Her grandmother really thought that far for her relationship.
The attention of the two was suddenly seized when one of the family members shouted to Claire.
"Grandmother should go first, we continue our conversation later."
"All right." Lucia nodded.
Claire wakes up and leaves Lucia alone. After Claire left, Lucia again switched focus on the rainwater points on the window glass near where she sat.
Being husband? I never thought that far, thought Lusia with her own smile at the thought of her grandmother's words that were quite tickling.
"Lussia?" A baritone man caught his attention. Lucia looked towards the man.
"Grandfather." Lusia smiled knot.
Cato's name, is his third grandfather. Is the only member of the Lucia family who now lives alone—means without a family.
Since her divorce a few years ago, Cato has been reluctant to be in love with other women. Moreover, the man had started to grow old. Her age was only a few dozen years different from Claire's age.
If Claire follows in her brother's footsteps to become a teacher, it's different with Cato. The man was a lecturer at one of London's top universities. He only returns to Indonesia a few times a year.
Because of his bachelor status, he never came to visit Indonesia other than to meet his family or side business.
Lucia got up from her seat, hugged the man in front of her.
"For a long time, I missed my grandfather" said Lucia, smiling.
Cato smiled back at him. He returned the hug that Lucia gave him.
