I honestly almost cried while writing this, I hope you like it. Comment with feedback if you want. <3
*this was written for a school assignment and it helps relieve some of the pain*


When I was in 8th grade we went on our end of the year trip. The trip consisted of a cruise around the White Mountains, a trip to an arcade and a trip to the movies. This was the best day I had since I moved to New Hampshire, but knowing my luck, I knew it was going to change soon. Around 1:30 we boarded the bus to head back to Nottingham Elementary, all of a sudden my phone rings, it's my Dad. This makes me happy because i had not talked to him in a few days. When I answer, my Dads voice sounds different. He sounds shaken and confused. When I ask him whats wrong he says "Brace yourself son, this isn't going to be easy." I figured my dad was just going to say he loved me, be loved joking around like this. Sadly, I was way off. He gave me a long story which ended with the words, "Your Grandmother is gone." The only thing I remember hearing after this is the last conversation I had with her, I didn't even hug her when I left. I immediately broke down, slammed my phone shut, threw it on the ground and started crying. Given i was the new kid, people started looking at me funny. The girl I was sitting with wanted to get up and leave, I could sense it, but instead she asked me what was wrong. I told her slowly, barely choking out the words. After, I felt a hand on my back and a head touching my head, she began to comfort me. The whole ride home, approximately an hour, I was bawling my eyes out, I couldn't help it. It just goes to show, your best day can quickly become your worst

...
wow.
that is truly so incredibly heartrending...
and sadly, very true.
it also is beautifully written.
you did a terrific job.
...
and, i am so very sorry about your grandmother...
no matter how long ago that may have been, i'm sure it can sometimes be just as painful for you, no matter how long ago it may have been.
and i know how you feel, too...
it's absolutely awful.
the loss of a loved one, is an unexplainably tragic occurrence.
