The warmth of my grandma
On a clear night, I went to go see my grandma who lives on the second floor of a warehouse as I panted and huffed out white breaths as if to blow them towards the stars. “Grandma, I came to see you!” I said as I pulled out a piece of chocolate from my pocket that I brought in secret, and popped them in her mouth. I stashed away the candy wrapper in my pocket to destroy evidence. “I'll come see you again!” I said, to which my grandma replied “Thank you. Today turned into a wonderful day.” with a smile. She seemed truly happy. It was an exchange that only lasted for a few moments, but is unforgettable.

The beauty of the clear winter night sky, your kindness and your grandmother’s smiling face. I read your story imagining how I’d draw about this moment in my techo. Even if it’s something that happened for just a moment in your day, it's enough to make the day an extremely happy one. A day in which you felt the warmth from your grandmother’s happy smile. My heart was content reading your story of a day which was a good day for the both of you.
