"Ah, I guessed that should be it after hearing about your grandpa from you, but you still remember them and apply them in your life and that makes you amazing," he smiled.
"Yeah, I am awesome, aren't I?" she puffed her chest.
"You are," he placed his hand on her back as they walked inside the house.
"Jerlina," he held her hand. "Back then, if I hadn't shaved my beard, would it have made a difference?" he asked.
