everyone at the funeral was boring.

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mMRKl9sfV

gail tried to comfort me

but i didn’t like gail.

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaR7nY8t5cR

why couldn’t it have been gail?

gail was unhealthier than pops.

she was addicted to nicotine and didn’t take good care of her teeth.

pops always tried his best

with everything

so why was he dead

and not her?

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAccvP6Qft7

and not me?

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNBFbbSVEO

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrS64Twgags

i asked mum if she could extend her stay

to spend some time with me

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFRCYn9k7M

she said no

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP83M5zMsM2

she needed to work

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWq98W7Ruv

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ27x2AMIUt

i asked mum if we were allowed to see him

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QP9gVj5F1

she said that wouldn’t be possible

she said his face was barely recognisable

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnJ7QPfmxu

i asked why

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Ov7noglov

and she said that’s where he was shot

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kCO5QY8t8

…

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcIi2bXi9w

“i thought it was diabetes that killed him!”

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwK3yfZGYb

“no,” she said, “it was a person.

“he never came home from his shoemaking class

“and someone found him in the gutter

“shot in the head with his heart carved out.”

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAeTGX4qRy

someone behind us gasped and told mum off for telling me.

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAoN1XdJ4l

i was glad to know.

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOCtK8sHyL

looking at the coffin i tried not to imagine.

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVkD3tljjv

but who would do that?

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxSBAgygon

i asked mum “do you think it was the same person?

“who shot him and carved out his heart?”

902Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwSqWGwIU0

she said “shhh!”

and that was that

conversation.

end.
