     Grandpa.

 

 

Your daughter and her husband tried to buy a puppy to your little grandchild but did not succeed.

Even your other grandchild thought that he could do it.

The only thing he did - a family.

Your wife tried to do it too.

But she went to daughter's place a week ago and didn't return.

She helps to keep the house clean.

It is up to you to do their job.

You decide to go to buy a puppy today.

.

You check if all windows are closed.

Take your pills and wrap each in separate piece of paper in order not to mix between them.

You check the weather outside.

Then check the weather on TV.

After you are sure today will be a regular sunny summer day, you take your umbrella, put scarf around your neck and go out.

And Stop.

You do not remember which direction is your bus stop.

You return home and make a call to your wife.

After four minutes of her telling you how ill she is to do just everything in daughter's house, you are sure that she will not stop complaining today, say bye and put the phone back.

You go out and turn right.

Hoping that the bus station is there.

After ten minutes, you understand that the bus stop is other way.

You stop in the nearest park to rest for a while.

You see some checkers players.

You go to see what they are doing.

They are playing.

To be sure, you ask if they play checkers.

You just shrug when everybody raise heads and look at you with strange interest.

You wait until they continue to play and then you begin to help them...

What rude people!

To shout on old man!

Be ashamed!

But you forgive them and continue to help...

.

They do not need to use force!

You understand hints too.

They could just say!

Why put their brutal force against an old person immediately?

 

You decide to go to clinic to check out if they did not damage you.

You lose your turn four times because you are too busy talking with your clinic-friend.

You did not see him come here for three days and thought that he is ill.

He assures you that everything is as usual.

You continue to discuss weather, economy, your children and the doctor who always says that you are healthy.

What they teach today doctors?

Cannot diagnose the easiest illness?

 

When the clinic closes, you feel too tired to go to buy puppy and return home.

Let somebody else buy a puppy to your grandchild.
