You were John Does only grandchild

Jane doe, who'm was John's wife, was at the store. You were bored so you wanted to see your partner! Although you had to ask John first. You walked downstairs to see him on the couch. You spoke

"Grandpa can I see my partner?"

You asked somewhat nervously. John Doe shook his head before speaking

"Dishes before bitches, cut the grass before you get ass."
