Strange Sounds & Smells

I was in the basement of my grandmother's home, she had long passed on but my Dad and Sister lived in her home.  I was helping my sister with laundry and we were busy talking about life's problems and folding.  

My sister always left the intercom on and we could hear anything that was going on upstairs.  All the kids were at school and the house was silent except for our chats and the dryer spinning.

Our conversation was interrupted by the sound of two people talking upstairs.  I turned to my sister and asked if she had left the television on but she said no.  She then told me that the conversation I was hearing happened all the time, you could faintly hear what sounded like a man and woman having a quiet dispute.

My sister without any question believed it to be our grandparents having a small argument and all I could do was stare at the intercom with amazement.  I only wished I could make out what they were talking about but it was to difficult to hear.

Soon after my sister said that it was grandma and I felt the same, I smelt her facial cream as if she just walked right by us.  I then said to my sister, "do you smell that?"  and she said "all the time."  My grandmother loved Merle Norman make-up and cleansers and she used them everyday.  The sent brought back so many memories of her and I felt at peace knowing she was watching over everyone.
