a little talk with love

A bell rang on his door. "Oh, Halmeoni? Who sent you here? Why don't you call me I can pick you up..."

Han Jipyeong slowly get the things in Halmeoni's hands and brought to his dining table.

"It's okay, Dalmi's mom drove me here.. Dalmi is so busy at the office so she left with Dosan." Halmeoni said and Han Jipyeong slowly nodded his head.

"What brings you here that you need to come? I can go to your house if you want to hang out." Han Jipyeong said while chuckled.

"It's been so long that I didn't hear you laughing..." Halmeoni smile.

"If I were you, I'd gotten over it already." said Jipyeong.

"Gotten over it?... Jipyeong, are you going somewhere?" Halmeoni asked while a bit struggled to reach Jipyeong's hand as her sight becoming blurry.

"Where would I go..." Jipyeong said in a low tone. "It's just... You said I shouldn't call you if I'm doing well. I'm doing a bit too well these days, so I'm kinda busy. I'll call you if I'm going through-"

Without waiting Jipyeong to finish his words, Halmeoni cut him off and said "Don't do that! Call me even if you're doing well. Visit me often, come see me even something happen or not."

Han Jipyeong's started to get teary and trying so hard holding back his tears listening to what Halmeoni said, he clears his throat. "Why would I do that if nothing's happen?"

"Just come over. Come and talk nonsense like you used to do like back then. I'm almost deaf and blind now, so you can say and do anything infront of me." Halmeoni said with a broken voice while tears keep flowing down on her both cheeks.

Han Jipyeong couldn't hold his tears anymore that he broke in tears.

Halmeoni keep trying to persuade him "Just laugh and cry all you want.... I won't ask why, so please come see me often." Halmeoni said that with tears in her eyes as well. "You shouldn't get too used to being alone, don't become any lonelier Jipyeong, okay?" Halmeoni caressed Jipyeong's hand gently with love.

Jipyeong wiped his tears that raining on his face and said "Okay..." and Halmeoni groping and finding where Jipyeong's face and wiping the tears away.

Halmeoni then hugging and comforting the person that she already took as family, "It's okay. Don't cry, I'm here for you" hoping that his precious grandson won't feel lonely and able to express and share his feelings more.

After they endythe conversations, Jipyeong unwrapping the foods Halmeoni brought and start talking again. "Anyway... I'll go somewhere... I need to go." Jipyeong said with a warm smile.

"I told you I'm here for you, why do you have to leave? Are you leaving me again, Jipyeong?" Halmeoni asked again and she starts to break down again.

"Halmeoni... It's not like that. I have some business to deal with in Sydney, so I'll leave tomorrow. Oh and, I don't know if I'll come back again"

"Seems like you're leaving me again... but I don't have any rights to stop you from going. It's your work after all. But I hope you would come often to see me before-"

He cut off Halmeoni's words and comforting his lovely grandma,

"Halmeoni... I'll visit you often even if you don't ask. I want to spend most of the times I live with you and fill up the longing I felt back then." As he said that, he reached Halmeoni's hand.

"What time you'll leave tomorrow? What flight will you take? I want to go with you for the last time. Dalmi's mom also need to fly somewhere tomorrow.. Why is everyone leaving me?" Halmeoni said and grinning.

"Halmeoni, why are you saying that. It's okay, you don't have-"

"Jipyeong... I might be dead by anytime soon, I could even be dead by sneezing so please."

"There you go with the old peeps saying again Halmeoni... I'll leave at 11 in the morning, Incheon Airport and it's Flight 705 ma'am" as he said in a teasing way like he's reporting to a Capten.

"Never mind, I'll go with Dalmi's mother since she left around that time. We can meet there tomorrow."

They end the situations with laughs and talks... like they used to do back then.
