Anger

It happened so suddenly, out of the blue,a big shock. I was hoping nothing happened. However, that wasn't the case.

My dad had gone to our home in Peru.That's in South America in case your wondering. He went for a family emergency that had happened. My grandmother got sick,really bad. The family over there asked my dad to go to see whats going on. My dad agreed and went off. He said he would only be gone for a while then come back home.

A week or so went by quick and my dad came back, however the news that came with him wasn't so great. He took me and my sister to his room and we sat down in a circle. Then he told us what had happened. "Your grandma was sick and there was nothing the doctors could do". "She has passed away". For a while me and my sister were quiet until we started crying out of shock. Then my dad said, "Its OK, she was tired and she wanted to sleep. So she closed her eyes and she left".

I broke into tears, I felt so much pain and anger. I thought,"My grandmother died, she died and i wasn't there, i wasn't there to say goodbye. I was so sad that I couldn't even stand. What happened, I never thought it would happen.

I began to remember fun and happy memories. How she danced with me, how she would tell me to always be happy and how she said she'd be there when I turn 15 and when I get married. But now I don't think that will ever happen. I missed her, and I still do miss her. I will always remember her and what she taught me. I love you abuelita rojana.
