EP 1; Placing the coffee mug on the glass table, "you know what darling, girls like you who always try to run away from dating and relationships, always end up falling in love at the end." 

Letting out a brittle laughter, "grandma I think you're under the influence of fairy tales. Or did you watch Cinderella cartoons before coming?" 

"Huh? I can't even remember the last time I watched fairy tales movie." 

"Then why are you talking bout dating and relationships? Because I know am not interested in them" 

Raising her eyebrows, granny Mathilda burst into laughter.

Scowling her face, "grandma what's funny? I didn't say something funny" 

Slightly pinching and pulling bianca's cheeks, granny Mathilda chuckled, "yes dear, you just said something funny." 

Frowning confusedly, "how?" 

Taking a deep breath, "first of all, let me tell you something." She sat up properly and faced her. "Do you know that old men and women of my age  still goes into relationship?" 

Widening her eyes and mouth in shock, Bianca threw her hands in her mouth and gasped. "Ahh, you gat to be kidding me grandma" 

Nodding her head, "no darling, am not kidding, am talking legit." 

"But why do they have to go into a relationship when they're old and weak?" Shrugging her shoulders, "weird" 

Flicking her forehead, "oh you haven't heard of old people dating sites?" 

Frowning confusedly, "old people dating sites? No I haven't and why is it?" 

Chuckling, "okay I'll tell you" she whispered and explained. "Every woman needs a life partner, whom will watch over her, protect her and support her till the end of time. So no matter your age or who you are, you still need a partner." 

Sitting up properly, Bianca helplessly shook her head. "But it's not in my gene to date anyone right now, because–" placing her hand on her chest, she gave a doleful look and added, "I don't wanna suffer another heartbreak, please feel my pains" 

Patting the top of her head, she chuckled. "I do feel your pains too dear but heartbreaks are also part of life" 

Widening her eyes and mouth in shock, "huh?" Bianca shouted shockingly.

"Uh huh, if you didn't date someone then how do you experience heartbreaks? Or do you just watch them happen in the movies?"

BREATHLESS [A story that will touch your soul]

Bursting into laughter, "you two have started fighting like kids again." Holding Justin's and Ryan's ears, granny Mathilda started pulling it. 


"Ouch, ouch, grandma it hurts." Justin and Ryan winced. 


"I will let you two go, only on one condition." 


"What condition, grandma." They inquired in unison. 


"Oh you mean dance with you?" Without waiting for her reply, Justin chuckled. "That's not hard, I can't wait to dance with you grandma." 


Grandma Mathilda, twists his ear harder. 


"I didn't say dance with me, I mean dance with your brother." Looking at Ryan, "Ryan." 


Widening their eyes and mouth, "Huh?" They shouted and looked at themselves in puzzlement. "What?" 


Nodding her head, "uh huh, that's your punishment for arguing in front of me and also for not giving me a perfect birthday present yet." 


Scrunching their brows, "perfect birthday present? What perfect birthday present?" 


"But grandma, we gave you lots of gifts today, isn't that a birthday present?" Ryan said. 


"Even my gift was big, isn't that enough?" Justin added. 


Vigorously nodding her head, "no, am not talking about that type of present." 


"Be specific about it grandma, I don't know what you are–– ouch! Ouch!" Ryan winced when granny Mathilda twisted his ear harder. 


"Why are you two still keeping my great-grandbabies waiting? They are tired of sleeping and they want to wake up." Granny Mathilda snapped with a deadpan face. 


Letting out a chuckle, "ah, granny that's a good one. A very–– ouch! Ouch! Okay it was a slip of tongue, ouch!" Justin winced when granny Mathilda twisted his ear. 


"I am one hundred today, and my mates have gotten their great-grandchildren. Many have gotten their great-great-grandchildren, but you two–" she twisted their ears harder, "you two are still keeping my great-grandbabies waiting." 


Just then, Thomas, Nelly, Billy, Sasha, Charlotte and Bianca, approached them and started laughing, when they saw the display in front of them. 


"Hahahahahahaha, dudes, you two did something wrong?" Billy laughed. 


"Oh my God, look at you two. Damn you guys look cute with grandma, holding your ears." Nelly laughed.
