The Elders arrival

It was sunday morning, the day grandma and grandaunty Teo arrived in S city. Teo was Mrs Feng real surename. The Old Feng couple left their house early in the morning. Nick nominated his self to go with them but they asked him to clean up the empty room next to Mr and Mrs Feng room downstair instead. They wished to have the room ready when thry arrives home with the elders as thr elder would stay in that rooms for the next 3 weeks. Since yesterday, They made few adjusment in the house. Single bed in Nick room had gone and moved to the other room, only double size matters left on the foor.

The girls didn't go with them either. They stayed home to help Alice preparing for lunch. Mrs Feng wished to have lunch ready when they were home. The elders preferred home made food rather than restaurant one. Mr Feng was agree with his wife, it also to score point for Alice.

When Sean came at the airport arrival terminal, Mr and Mrs Feng were waiting on the bench. He had an initiative to come as he was sure that Mr Feng would need help to manage the suitcase. "Mum, dad. It seems the flight is abit delay" He greeted them happily. The couple were suprised when they saw him "Sean, you are here". Mrs Feng asked him to sit next to her.

"I come to help ypu with the suitcases. I am sure you need extra hand" Sean said as he sat down.

"Most likely" Mr Feng agreed with his secong son.

They waited for another 20 minutes before they could allocated the elders. Both of the old ladies pushed a trolly full of suitcases in different size. Mr Feng was delighted Sean was there to help. He would be in trouble without Sean helping hand as elders had a lot of stuff with them.

"Hello grandma, hello grandaunt, How are you ?" Sean greeted the elders. He wasn't sure how the elders would see him now. He hadn't met him for long time. Ages ago, Grandma was cold toward him. Sean knew that She was agiants Feng couple to look after Sean. She didn't have a good impression about him due to this parents back ground. Grandma point of view was one of the factor why Sean did his best to achieve his dream.

"Oh you boy. Long time not see you. Last time I came, you were in Europe" Grandma nodded and smiled.

"Look, he's become a young and fine man now. I remember when you brought him to visit me for the first time, he just a skinny boy" Grandaunty patted Sean back.

"Mum, aunt, He is a lawyer now" Mrs Feng reminded the elders.

"Where are the other kids ?" The elders were disappointed only to see Sean there. They expected at least four of them came since the knew Alan didn't stay in that city.

"They are at home. I told Nick to clean up. Alice and the girls are preparing for our lunch" Mrs Feng put credit all her kids.

"Lets go now" Mr Feng leaded the way. Mrs Feng walked with her aunt and her husband where as Sean pushed the trolly full of suitcases with grandma walked next to him.

Grandma Teo didn't speak much but she watched Sean with gleaming eyes all the time.

"Grandma, are you tired ? If you are, just hold my arm" Sean was uneasy as he noticed grandma eyeing him all the time.

Grandma held Sean hand and continued walking "Look at your muscular arms and body. ck.. ck.. ck.. How many girl have tried to lay their hand on your body ?".

Sean snorted "Don't worry grandma. I don't fancy cheap one".

"Good, good" Grandma Teo patted Sean arm gently.

Both elders were on Mr feng car "Are you not coming boy ?" Grandaunt asked Sean.

"No grandaunt, My car parked there" Sean pointed certain direction. Mr Feng's car left the parking area first as Sean parked the car further away and it took while for him to load the suitcases.

During the journey back home, grandma asked a lot of question about Sean and Alan. They already knew everything about their biological grandkids and Alice as Mrs Feng always gave them update over the phone. However, Mrs Feng hardly talked about the others two, especially Sean. She was afraid that they still didn't fond of him. On the other car, Sean grinned from ear to ear the whole time. He was delighted that the elderd weren't as cold as they used to be.

When Mr Feng car arrived at home, Sean car was already there. He and Nick were unloading the suitcase.

Grandaunt frowned when she got off from the car and saw Sean. She slapped Sean arm as hard as she could. Sean acted as it was hurt on "Ah grandaunt, why did you hit me ?".

Grandma tweaked his ear as he bent down to pick the suitcase on his car boot "ouch, grandma please. What did I do wrong ? please enlighten me."

"How fast did you drive your car ? it's danger to drive too fast" Grandma scolded Sean.

"Grands please. I didn't speeding at all. I just used the short cut, it was much faster. Also, dad drove to slow" Sean rubbed his sore ear and pouted but deep inside his heart, he was thrilled that the elders concerned about him.

"There you go" Nick winked at Sean. He knew his brother yearned their elders acceptance.

"Hi grandma, grandaunt " Nick turned to greet the elders.

Nick and Sean came inside the house first and went to the room downstair to put the suitcases. The Feng couple brought the elders to the living room where the Sasha and Cacha were waiting to greet the elders. Alice was still in the kitchen. She didn't cook or do anything, she was hiding. She was so nervouse since it was her first time to see them.

"Where is Alice ?" Mrs Feng asked the girls.

"Still in the kitchen, cooking" Cacha answered her mother.

"I'll call her" Nick went to the kitchen. He knew Alice was anxious. He hugged his fiancee shoulder and escorted her to the living room to meet the elderd "Lets greet the elders. They are very nice. Don't worry to much, they knew everything about you. Mum already told them" Nick Nick explanation made Alice even worst.

The elders were old school, if they knew her dark side, they would dislike her. Wasn't it ? She wasn't sure Nick way of thinking.
