She sat, tears streaming down her face. She had always been one of her Granny's favorite. Maybe it was the perfect toes inherited from her, or that line at the left edge of her mouth whenever she smiled or frowned. Whatever it was, her Granny loved her best, and that was that.

She wrote a letter that even touched someone cold and stone hearted such as I. I'm not reprinting it as much as I'm paraphrasing. It goes:

Dear Granny,

I'm sorry that I could not keep my promise. I'm sorry that you cannot laugh with me as you once did. I'm sorry that I did not find a job quicker; my promise to treat you to Dim Sum once I got my first paycheck was never fulfilled.

Here is a little bit of money that I have earned in my first paycheck. See, I finally did it. I got a great job. I'm sorry you and I never got a chance to share this, but I'm still going to include it here so that you can be proud of me. I wish we had more time together and I could have listened more of your storied past; how you struggle to leave China, how hard the war was on you especially. All that is buried with you now, and I hope you're more happy in Heaven than when you were here.

Goodbye Granny, I hope to see you again someday. I love you.

....Mah Mah, I miss you lots too.
