老太太约秀娥

i was sitting on a bench at the intersection of 朝阳们外大街 and 东大桥. She looked at me and asked me if she can sit next to me. “I can tell you aren’t from here. You observe your surroundings. You look like you have time .“

I met 老太太 on Wednesday, May the 6th, for the first time. She is a happy nature and definitely very out going.  I met her yesterday for the second time, as arranged at 4pm. She was half an hour too early. She doesn’t have a watch, but just asks people what time it is. She didn’t mind to wait for half an hour. She turns 84 this year and went 4 years ago for the first time in her life to School. She was going for 3 years every week 2X/Wk to English classes. She had to study Chinese and English at the same time, because she’s illiterate (文盲: I like the Chinese word for it. language blind.) Her Chinese has improved. She can read some daily-used characters, but can’t remember how to write them. And she can sing the English Alphabete!

What is an important bodypart of a woman?

She showed me her breasts. Actually only one, because she had breastcancer and had to remove her right breast. What stayed is a big scare. I was suprised how open she was.

We are sitting on a bench, she lifts her blouse and I gaze at her breast…
