Но заием, однажды, то чего мы все боялись, в конце концов, произошло. Бабушка покинула нас навсегда. "Shmily." Это слово было нацарапано желтым цветом на розовых лентах траурного букета моей бабушки. Когда толпа поредела и последние люди из провожающих бабушку в последний путь повернулись, чтобы уйти, мои тети, дяди, кузены и другие члены семьи подошли и собрались вокруг бабушки в последний раз. Дедушка подошел к гробу моей бабушки и, сделав судорожный вдох, начал петь ей. Хотя его душили слезы и горе, песня звучала, как проникновенная и гортанная колыбельная.Дрожжа от своей собственной печали, я никогда не забуду тот момент. Ибо я знал, что, хотя я не мог постичь глубину их любви, я был привилегированным свидетелем ее несравнимой красоты.
S-H-M-I-L-Y. Видишь, Как Сильно Я Люблю Тебя!
дедушка и бабушка, за то, что позволили мне всё это увидеть. Лаура Жанна Эйлиен
