632 Words
"Can i join with me, Kana?" Jayvee asked.
"No, it's okay. I'm just fast. Just keep an eye on grandma and my siblings."
"Hehe alright. Be careful." I nodded at him as answered.
"Be careful, grandchild." Grandma said.
"Yes grandma." I waved to him before leaving.
I walked around until I found a place to buy food.
"How much ri---" I stopped speaking when a customer suddenly tasted the food I wanted to buy.
Adobo is my favorite. He just blew it! Annoying!
I looked to see who the buyer was and I was shocked to see the man I hate now.
Angry birds guy!
"You again?!" I told him I was annoyed.
"Yeah, it's me, again" he answered annoyingly.
"Why did you taste the merchandise? Are you the only one buying it?" I complained to him.
"Because I already bought that before you came."
"How arrogant!" I scolded him.
"What? It's true that I already bought that? You should ask first."
"Why?... Do you think I didn't? Tss." I just left and went to another store.
"Please buy here." I told the seller but she was busy wrapping his goods.
"Everything has been sold. Just buy from someone else." The seller answered.
I looked at the angry birds guy who were smiling at me.
Hyst! Why did he buy everything? Can he eat it alone? And one more thing, of all the places he can go, he's right here!... Is he following me? I hope not!
Annoyed, I walked around to another store until I got out of the resort. I saw a food cart but they didn't sell food but clothes.
I just went back inside and used my cellphone. I just ordered something for us to eat because I didn't want to look for another store. It's boring. Maybe all those angry birds have sold!
"Grandma, are you hungry?" I approached him happily looking at my siblings.
"Not yet... Go swimming first grandchild, join your siblings."
"Hehe later, grandma."
"All right." He looked at me before looking back at my brothers. "They are lucky because you became their sister... You are very kind, hija."
"That's normal for me grandma. I'm naturally kind." I said with an arrogant voice.
"So, are you going to invest?"
"Grandma, I don't want to talk like that."
"Why don't you just accept grandchild?"
"I don't want to. Besides, I told you that I don't know anything about that company, so just leave it alone."
"But I only have a few months to live grandchild." She said sadly which surprised me.
"W-what was that? What did you say?"
"Grandchild Kana, I won't be here much longer. I'm old."
"What are you talking about? I know you are old but you still look like children." I said jokingly and hoping that what she was saying earlier was wrong.
"Stop making me stop with that nonsense of yours. As long as I'm gone, you're the one I want to handle our company."
"Grandma, it will be a long time before that happens."
"Is 3 months still long? I don't think we---" I cut him off.
"Grandma! Don't talk like that!"
"Listen, grandchild." She sat straight and stared at me. "Everything I'm telling you is true, that's why I hope you'll let me go before I disappear."
"Grandma, don't say that." My voice is shaking because I want to cry.
"I want you to have a good life and I also want to fulfill my promise to your grandfather."
"Just say that you have fulfilled it." I'm kidding.
"You're really young." She hit me on the shoulder. "Just agree, if you don't want to. Just get married!" I was dumbfounded by the last thing grandma said.
Marriage?
I will get married?
What???
