On his seventeenth birthday, the boy received a beautifully packed box as a gift. The guy opened it and froze with joy. A new gadget! He did not expect to receive such an expensive gift, so he was very happy. It was his fault that he lost his old phone. He forgot it somewhere in the sports school. To be left without a gadget in our time is a real tragedy, he had a strong feeling that he had lost not a phone, but some limb, because he had become weak. He could not even contact his friends. And here is a new gadget, all problems are solved!
– Call your grandmother, you haven’t talked to her since you lost your phone. She misses you. Okay, Mom. The boy dialed his grandmother’s number as a memento. The woman sat sadly at the window and looked at the wind stirring the leaves on the trees. Sadness was a heavy burden on her shoulders. Five years ago, her only daughter had an accident with her family. Since then, the old woman had no relatives left, she was left all alone in the world. The woman dreamed only of going to the other world as soon as possible. Suddenly the phone rang. It was an old, push-button phone, her daughter gave it to her. She was charging it out of habit, no one had called her for a long time. Seeing an unfamiliar number, the old woman’s face stretched in surprise. – Grandma, hi, it’s your grandson. – Grandson? – Yes! How are you? How are you?
-Good… And then the boy talked about his business for an hour. The old lady sat and listened with bated breath. She was very pleased. – Well, Grandma, I have to run to class! – Yes, granddaughter, you call more often… The woman burst into tears. – Grandma, what are you doing? I’ll call you every day! And he did. But a week later his mother said to him: – Why don’t you call your grandmother? I asked you to. – What do you mean? – Directly. The guy dialed the number. – Grandma, why did you tell your mother that I don’t call you? – Dear, forgive me for not admitting it right away. You dialed the wrong number, but I was so pleased to listen to you that I did not confess! I live all alone, I have no relatives… The next day, the boy and his parents were going to go and meet the new grandmother.
