A visit

Grandma paid a visit to my house lately for a week.
Honestly, I'd undergone communication breakdown with this lady.
The generation gap is too wide until I didn't even bother to cross it.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GM: Recently, do you have any friends?
M: (Oh no! Definitely the old dusty topic again.) What kinds of friends you refer to?
GM: Intimate boyfriendlah.
M: (See!) No.
GM: What about last time the accountant guy? Didn't he want to be friend with you?
M: (Damn it! How did you know it? You're quite informative and up-to-date) Friend? Again, what types of friend you refer to.
GM: Of course, being boyfriend.
M: If being boyfriend, no. (We ain't even friend.)
GM: My neighbour, a teacher, asked me whether I had any girls who are single. Her son got male friends who are single.
M: (Damn it! What the hell) Who is the teacher?
GM: From a school. She wants to see your photo.
M: What for? (If she's looking for models, I'm NOT model.)
GM: Just to see.
M: (What's the point? She's not looking a partner for his son. Come on! Just her son's friend! She has no authority to see the photo as if she is the mother of them.) No need.
GM: Come on! No harm to let her to see your photo.
M: I don't have any. (Who cares for it!)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GM was looking at my graduation's framed photos.
GM: Just give me any of your photos. She will help you to find a guy. No harm.
M: (Damn it! Who knows what the hell she is going to do. Passing a photo as if I'm the superstar. I'm not a clown!) No. (Fussy woman!) I don't have any photos.
After she left, I did something so that the photos out of her sight.

GM: Is this a hair spray?
M: What do you want?
GM: (examining it) Ya. This is the hair spray for hair fall treatment. Do you use it?
M: Of course I use it...or else, it won't be “such a little”.
GM was spraying it without any permission!
(Spittt...)
(Spittt...)
(Spittt...)
(Spittt...)
(Spittt...)
(Spittt...)
(Spittt...)
M: (Arghh! My EXPENSIVE hair fall treatment spray! Poor you! I only spray twice in four days.)
(Spittt...)sssss
After she left, again it would be out of her sight.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GM just finished taking her bath and of course washing her hair.
GM: My hair is falling.
M: (pretend not to hear her)...
GM: (taking mum's hair spray) How does it work?
M: I don't know.
Mm: Shake it and spray it.
Mm was helping her.
Mm: It seems it cannot be used..I had left it there for quite a long time. May be it frozen.
GM: (Targeting on other spray) Is it for hair spray?
M: I don't know. I didn't use it.
GM: (asking Mm) Is it a hair spray?
Mm: Read the label. Body lotion spray. Not for hair.
M: (I guess she knew it.)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GM: Long time ago already told your mm to do dumplings to sell. She said troublesome. Only now, she does it.
M: Last time, she hasn't known how to make.
GM: Don't know how to make. She can learn. Last time, I also told her to bake meat rice dumpling to sell. She said no need while a lot people want meat flavour. Only now, she is willing to do so. How many opportunities she gave away..?
M: (Sigh, if you want to complain about my mm and don't dared to talk in front of her, what is the point to talk in front of me. Are you expecting me to tell her since you don't want to talk in front of her?) ...
I ignored her. Don't bother about her.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mm: The accountant guy's auntie came to see me again. She asked you to go out and have a drink with him.
M: (Oh no. This bee!) Why don't you just tell her that we're not suitable?
GM: If you go out with him this time, he will definitely be quiet all the time.
M: What? What did you tell them? Saying that he is talkative?
Mm: No. I just tell her auntie that he is quite sociable. No harm to him.
M: To him, he would think sociable=talkative. Why don't just tell him directly I have no feeling towards him?
Mm: Then, he will think you are the main problem.
M: So what? Who cares about his perception towards me. No relation with him anymore.
GM: Need to look of mate. You're no longer seventeen years old...already approaching thirties. You thought you want to depend on your brother?
M: I never thought of this. You are the one who said that. I can support my own life. I got my own career.
Mm: I will be getting old.
M: Everyone will be getting old. That's nature.
Mm: Then, no one will take care of you.
M: I will take care of myself.
GM: When you getting old, you need partner to accompany you.
M: Not necessarily. (Not all partners will live long. Some may leave us early or we may leave the world earlier. Grandpa is one of those who left us early).
I just left with hidden rage.

GM likes to wear outdoor slippers into our house. Anyway, it's fine to us. No one would complain about it. I'm the one who cleans and mops the floor. How dirty the floor is!

GM: The floor is dirty. Aih~ It must be the dogs which step in and out the house making the house so dirty.
M: (OMG! If you said the dogs, you're the 'dogs'--the 'Mr. Nobody' who did the mischief!) ...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GM: Come here and help me to switch on the DVD player. I want to play the DVD.
M: Which one (DVD)?
GM: This.
I helped her to switch on the DVD player and play the MTV.
GM: (calling me again) switch it off and change another DVD. The MTV is not interesting and melodious.
M: (Gosh! Save me! You are the one who bought the DVD and wanted me to play it. You are the one who said it is not melodious and wanted me to stop it!) ...
I didn't take any action. Let her be.
