"In that case your family must be given an award for patience," Dwin pointed out, wondering, if all Val's family members were witty like this. She had limited experience with people outside her immediate circle of acquaintances, but she suspected that manner of talking and discussing, as well as sense of humor was something you inherited.
"Me thinks that you have not met a truly old man," she said, finding it funny that Val all of a sudden pictured himself to be this all-wise grandpa, when in reality he could not be much older than her. Of course, she did not realize that months ago, when they had met for the first time, the age gap between them had felt wa-a-a-ay bigger than it was now.
Now - with all her self-proclaimed disintrest in the opposite sex and having no intention to ever thread the traditional path of marriage-children-kitchen - he almost seemed eligible. Give it another year and - lo and behold - her thought would change again. "These gnome feet have been resting and keeping up with the new kids," she said. "And what about your creaky joints and stiff hips, old man? Dare I suggest that you must watch that weight of yours, because obesity is no friend to failing legs," she said.
