due to my grandpa’s rooming being directly next to the bathroom, i have to be cognizant of how late i take showers. so it’s around 11:03pm and i walk out of my room to see if his room light is on, because if his room light is on then most likely he’s up vibing. when i open my door, i see his door open. he is in a flannel and his underwear seemingly folding blankets. i just moved in, so i don’t know his nightly routine/rituals so i didn’t make anything of it. i ask if it is okay to take a shower and he said to take one. i took my shower and when i got out, my mom was in his room taking off his sheets. apparently his rubber bag broke and hot water spilled everywhere. i deadass can’t believe he didn’t tell me lol. we changed his sheets and got him new blankets. he had a burn mark on his leg the size of a quarter, but it could’ve been much worse. thankfully grandpa didn’t seem bothered and was able to go to bed.
the whole time i’m in the shower i’m thinking everything is all hood only to come out to the opposite!
