talk over the phone

Auckland to Colorado

Every few weeks or so my mum would call our grandma.
I was handed the phone and her first question was
“Any boy courting you yet?”
“No lola. No boy so don’t worry,” I replied grinning kinda taken aback by the in-your-face question.
“Why not?! You’re pretty.” I was thinking “Of course you think that, you’re my grandma.”
“I don’t know. No one’s interested?”
“Oh, okay. It’s just that 3 guys have asked me out.” I cracked up laughing with, to be honest, a slight tinge of jealousy.
“Did you say yes?”
“Yes. I said yes to all of ‘em. Nothing romantic, no. I just agreed because of the free meals.”
“Way to go lola!” Haha! Should have known she’ll take advantage of the situation.
Probably the most teenage-girl talk I’ve had with my grandma.
