WARM UP

READ

I bought a Manga for our grandmother. This is one of the famous Manga today, the Sanju Mariko.
Why did you buy our grandmother a Manga? It is not yet her birthday and she is too old for that.

I bought Manga for her because I believe she will see herself in the story. Plus, the latest trend in Manga is that old people are the main characters in the story instead of teenagers.
I see and I also remember that lately, she kept on telling me her life stories when she was young. So I guess giving her a Manga about it will make her happy.

Indeed. I will just cover it with a gift wrapper then I will give this to her.
Let me help you with that then let’s go to our grandmother’s house.
