New Grandfather’s Old Watch
by: Syrelle France S. Paterter
Read the story below and answer the questions that follow.
Back when we were still young, my sister and I
used to go to our grandparents’ house to play with our
cousins. I could still remember the two old rusty swings
by the garden. Kuya Anton, the eldest among us, used
to sway both Alyana and me until his arms got more
tired than before.
6. One day, while we were playing inside the big
house, I saw my grandfather looking at his watch. It was
quite old, but he seemed to treasure it.
“Lolo, your watch is already old. Don’t you want to
replace it with a new one?” I used to ask him then. But
he just smiled at me and tapped my shoulders using his
calloused big hands.
7. When my grandfather died, we put the watch in his
casket and buried it with him. My father said that it was
my Lola’s wedding gift to him. That’s when I realized how
important that old watch is to my Lolo.
