Eyang Ti

Come on, friends.

Stretch your legs and arms to the front.

Begin! Make a fist. Let go.

One, two.

One, two.

One, two.

Growing old is inevitable.

But, being happy needs to come from oneself.

No matter how small the happiness is,

it can light up your world.

- Res! - Hi, Res!

- I'll go ahead. - Nares!

Where are you going? You're always rushing after school.

I have an appointment.

You always say that.

We have a group project. Where are you going?

You're so nosy!

I'm going to Werdha House.

I'll search for the data for our project and you'll organize it. Okay?

What's Werdha House?

It's a nursing home. Gotta go. Bye!

What's she doing at a nursing home?

She's young, but she already goes to one.

Does she have to apply now?

Thank you.

Peace be with you.

Peace be with you too. Res?

- Have you been waiting for a long time? - No.

Right, I'm sorry I didn't get the chance to buy your favorite cake.

I was in a rush.

But, I have this! Pinch cake.

Street food vendor. It's really good, Grandma.

Don't worry. The hawker was clean.

The cart was clean too. I checked.

You still like to buy street foods.

When your father was still in school,

I'd always pack him lunch so that he wouldn't buy street food.

Besides, you don't have to bring me anything.

Your mere presence makes me happy.

Yes, but, it doesn't feel right if I come empty-handed.

Besides, street food vendors these days are cleaner than the ones in the past.

You're good at talking.

Let's go to the entertainment room.

- Should we share this? - Yes.

- Good afternoon, grandmas, grandpas. - Good afternoon.

Good afternoon.

It's so nice to be you, Mrs. Murti.

Your grandchild visits you every day.

Unlike me.

Tofan said he'll come by this week, but he hasn't.

It's okay. I'm here for you!

Consider me your grandchild.

And I brought pinch cake!

It's delicious.

When eating pinch cake, we should have hot tea.

Right?

Just enjoy the cake and be grateful for it.

Yes, you're right.

I don't want your mom to meddle in our household affairs.

Who's meddling, anyway?

The ones who take care of this household

are you and the maid.

Why are you blaming my mom?

She serves food to you and Nares,

and she nags at our maid, saying she's incompetent.

She works for me. I'm the one who pays her.

So your mom has no right to nag at her.

I'm sorry, Ratna...

if I was too involved in your household affairs.

Dear.

Please apologize to her.

So I'm the one at fault?

It's not like that, Dear.

Grandma, where are you going?

What's wrong? Was it because of Mom?

She won't be mad tomorrow. Please forgive her.

- Grandma. - I'm going to take my leave.

Where will you go?

In the meantime, I'll be staying over at Aunt Niken's.

Mom, this is your home as well.

Aunt Niken's house is far away.

If we miss each other, it'll take some time to get to each other.

- Well... - Dear.

If we miss each other, we can meet up.

Nares, please call a cab for me.

Mom, I'll take you there.

- I want to come. - No.

Stay here with your mom.

I'll miss you, Grandma.

Knock on the door before coming inside.

How could you make her leave?

This is Dad's house.

This is her son's house.

Don't stand up for her.

You're just a kid.

You don't understand adults' problems, especially household affairs.

Later, when you're married,

you'll realize that what I did was right.

I won't be like you.

I'll love my in-laws just as much as I love you and Dad.

Are you sure you want to stay at Aunt Niken's house?

She has many children.

I'm afraid she already has a lot on her plate.

I'll only stay there temporarily, Di.

Where are you moving to afterwards?

Mom.

By any chance...

do you want to...

stay at...

a nursing home?

There will be someone who takes care of you.

You'll have friends in your age group.

And doctors are on standby all the time.

But, Mom, it's fine if you don't want to.

We can still go to Aunt Niken's house.

Why don't we try first, Di?

If I don't like it there, I'll let you know.

Are you sure?

You should make a booking beforehand

because we have to check if there's a vacant room.

But, coincidentally, someone just left.

Why, Ma'am? The person didn't like it here?

He passed away.

Ma'am, Sir, please wait here.

I'll prepare the room first.

I'll call you when it's ready.

- Thank you, Ma'am. - Okay.

The previous owner of the room...

Everyone will die eventually.

We just have to wait for our turn.

Why should we be scared?

Oh, Di.

You act as if your girlfriend's leaving you.

I'm an awful son.

As an only child, I should take care of you and not put you in a nursing home.

Adi.

I'm old.

Soon, God will call me.

Mom.

Your family still has a long journey ahead.

There are many challenges you'll have to face.

Ma'am, it's ready.

Go on.

- Ma'am. - Yes?

Can I bring my own bedsheets?

Of course, Ma'am.

Make it as comfortable as you like.

Thank you.

- I'll take my leave. - Yeah.

- Sir, I'll be going. - Thank you, Ma'am.

- Yeah. - Di.

Please bring my stuff that's still at your house. Okay?

Yes, Mom.

I'll come back tomorrow morning.

Well, I will organize the room now.

Good night, Mom.

- Peace be with you. - And also with you.

Ma'am, breakfast is ready.

- Thank you. - Yeah.

The blanket is in that bag, right?

No, it's in there.

Go eat breakfast. I'll put the stuff in the car.

No, I'm not hungry yet.

You're not hungry yet?

Say goodbye to your mom.

Okay.

We'll be going, Mom.

- Peace be with you. - Also with you.

Okay, Dear. I'll be going.

Peace be with you. Let's go.

- Done? - Yes. Let's go.

Dad, Grandma is staying in a nursing home?

Yes.

How could you do that to her?

This isn't easy for me either.

But, this is the best option right now.

Come on.

Bring that. Then close the door.

Grandma!

This is a street snack

that I reluctantly had to buy, since your dad likes it.

You know what's making me ashamed?

I was a PKK teacher.

How can I buy such an unhealthy snack?

But, it's good, right?

Yes.

Grandma,

was Dad naughty when he was a child?

Your dad was a very good kid.

From childhood up until now,

he's always bought me presents.

Like your hair clip.

Yeah.

Hair clips.

Bracelets.

After he started working,
