A person who I can never forget

My brother and I are brought up by my granddad, my father's father. Because we had a babysitter, both my brother and I did not have to go a kindergarten, and so we stayed at home a whole day with granddad. After parents headed for the job, three people in the house, a pensioner and two jobless, used to pass time doing something funny as much as we could. 

     "I need to refer to my country's society at that time. My generation grew up in a extraordinary period of time. In the one hand, we were luckless because my country was in a transition from communist system to a market economy. As a result of that, we had a lack of foods and clothes. Some of my peers say that due to deficiency of nourishment, we couldn't get necessary nutrition that we had to and so that now we are short. kkk. It could be. In the other hand, we are lucky that our childhood were unparalleled in comparison with other new generations. Somehow we used to come up with games to enjoy ourselves. We have grown up physically strong" 

Let's go on main idea. As I said about our society, we had just a few kind of foods such as meat, bread, sugar, milk, few candies... . Therefore, buying those daily products was not as easy as now we buy them from supermarkets. In the morning, long lines of people waited for the shop's opening time. What's more, shopping centres were also very few that can be counted on the fingers of one hand in my district. I mean it. So every morning granddad got there just with just enough money for two breads. It used to take a long time to come back home with breads from the shopping centre. As brother and I were waiting for granddad, we used to be starving so much as well as we were too young to cook for us. About two hours later, my grandfather used to bring two breads and some candies for brother and me. He got there with just enough money for two breads. But he sold the breads to someone else in the line increasing its real price a little bit after buying them. After two or three times, he made money to buy something sweet for his grandchildren.
