The Used Tablet My Grandma Gave Me

Grandma Evelyn always said I was her favorite out of her seven grandchildren.

Growing up, she gave me countless shoes, clothes, and books.

But Grandma always claimed she couldn't afford new things, so she'd pick up secondhand items for me instead.

Mom and Dad would always say that even if they weren't brand-new, it was the thought that counted with Grandma, so I always felt pressured to accept them graciously.

Later, I graduated from college and landed an offer at a major company.

The whole family threw a party to celebrate.
