Visiting grandma

Gavin

Hi Henry, how are you today?

Henry

Hey Gavin! I'm good, thanks. How are you?

Gavin

I'm very well. What are you doing right now?

Henry

Not much, just relaxing. Do you have plans today?

Gavin

Yes, I'm going to visit my grandma. She lives nearby.

Henry

That sounds nice. How old is your grandmother?

Gavin

She is 78 years old. She's very kind and funny.

Henry

Wow, that's wonderful. Does she live alone?

Gavin

Yes, she lives alone. But we visit her often.

Henry

That's good. Do you bring her anything when you visit?

Gavin

I usually bring cookies or flowers. She loves yellow flowers.

Henry

Yellow flowers are beautiful. What do you do together?

Gavin

We drink tea and talk. Sometimes she tells old stories.

Henry

I love old stories. Does she cook for you?

Gavin

Yes! She makes the best apple pie. It's my favorite.

Henry

That sounds delicious. How long does it take to get there?

Gavin

Only fifteen minutes by bus. It's very close.

Henry

That's convenient. Do you visit her every week?

Gavin

Almost every Sunday. It's a nice routine for both of us.

Henry

That's really great. Say hello to her from me!
