Do you remember you used to hide the candies in the couch with your grandpa? And at noon after dinner, Febe then said: “Grandpa shall we sleep in the couch for a bit?” And we put a blanket on us, but secretly we were eating our candies. Until your mom suddenly caught us and saw our cheeks going up and down. And she said: “Shame on you, grandpa! Teaching Febe to eat candy when you know it’s unhealthy for her little teeth.”
Can I say something else? Febe, your grandpa is a little sick but you can’t see it. Later you’ll surely understand what is wrong with your grandpa. Your grandpa has some trouble remembering things and understanding everything properly. But you know it, right: I love you.
