"Come!" is the only word that Celeste's great grandmother knows in English. Every Sunday when Celeste and her parents visit Oma who lives with Celeste's aunt and uncle, Oma tells Celeste, "Come." She begins to tell Celeste a story in her native tongue, of which Celeste does not understand. So she listens and imagines what Oma is saying by looking at her gestures and her expressions. Oma tells Celeste of her story of when she was forced to marry someone she did not like. She ran away and her family was shamed. Oma eventually met Leo, a traveling salesman who had no money, but they still fell in love. They had 3 children, of which one was Celeste's grandmother. Even though Oma is sad that Leo is gone, she realizes that it was better to love and lose, than to never have loved...or been loved at all. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
