the look of ...??

Finally i had made up my mind about going & booked my tickets. That wasn't the big deal. But got it done in the sleeper coach, yeah! was a big deal. Not cause it was filthier(which it isn't, probably a lil..), but i was a wee bit scared. Of thieving! having been picked once before.
Anyhow i had to make a move to the station, checked if i had packed everything. Just then my grandad came into the room & asked the same question again,"Check if you have packed everything?" Sometimes i feel they're just too concerned, but who am i kidding, they are Grandparents. But the reason in my case was also because i tend to forget something or the other and end up having to listen for it.
And while asking for the details of my journey, he realized i was traveling by the sleeper class! And i heard one of the longest "Oh" from him with the look on his face clearly touching and apprehensive about me. I adored him for feeling that for me, don't we all.
He then completed what he was saying,"Oh! The Payasam will get spoiled in the sleeper class!"
WHAT! My jaw had almost given up in dismay. And come to think of it, Did I say concerned?.
Guess i got the words right and i should have realised better that the look on his face was clearly touching and apprehensive but ABOUT "THE PAYASAM" and not me!

*payasam-rice pudding or kheer
