It took me five days to be back from the city. On my way home I was worried about my store. I was afraid it must be closed in my absence.
But when I arrived home, I found it open. My father was sitting at the counter managing the shop.
On seeing me he smiled and asked me to go and have my tea.
Customers had swarmed the shop.
I have realised my father in his 80s is still younger than me .

It is the mutual respect & love that is awesome!
Yes at times, our parents amaze us with their abilities.
Is it getting colder there?
Yesterday the night temperature went down to close to 5 C (much below the normal).

Thank you. I know my parents love me.
I know they are fit and have no problems, but I don't want them to work hard and get exhausted.
Here the temperature had dropped down as low as 9 C on Monday. But yesterday it was not so cold.

Here night time temperatures have dropped you almost 6 C.
Plus even around 10 in the morning, cold winds were blowing.

Yes, he's completely fit. My mother told me he didn't even feel tired.

That’s wonderful that he kept it open. He sounds like a delightful man.
