Home away, from home. 2 mins, 2023.

TRANSCRIPT:
(Auntie) Hold on a sec. Now ready, roll.
(Grandma) Can you hear me?
(Auntie) Louder.

(Grandma) Not sure what the time is over there. How are you?
It’s getting cold. Take care of your health. Soon I´ll be seeing your face.

(Grandma) Take care of your health. I’d like that very much. I trust you’ll go through it bravely.
How’s Coronavirus over there?
Take care. Take care. Take care.

(Grandma) I felt bad to see you having to spend your birthday alone from afar.
Coronavirus, don’t you dare going near. Well, you’re a big boy now.
Take care. Take care. Take care.

(Grandma) We’re all well here. One less to concern about. I heard you’re visiting soon.
Take care. Take care. Take care.

(Grandma) I heard you’re coming at some point. Stay well till then. So long. See you then.
Trust that we will see again. Until then, you take care.
Work hard and be a thoughtful person.

(Me) Grandma, who’s your favourite grandchild?

(Grandma) …I have no doubt you’ll do great.
…I trust you everything will be alright.

(Grandma) My favourite grandchild?
(Me) Yes, grandchild.
(Grandma) Who else could it be? You’re the one.

(Me) Hehe. Right? Me too.

(Grandma) …There’s only one.
(Me) Pardon?

(Grandma) There’s no one but you.
(Me) I am the one, right?
