The odor in the room of grandparents is still strong even after they passed away. It is combined with the hair oil, cloth, medicine and this old house. The recent days is just like the remained odor. Sometimes I feel that they are still with me, and sometimes the scene of saying goodbye comes to me again and again.

​

After the funeral, some relatives talked about their dreams. In these dreams, my grandparents were still very much alive. But till now, I never dreamed even once. It makes me feel that their passing away is the dream itself, and this book is the gift from them.

(The patterns on the book box come from my grandmother’s dress.)
