One Hell of a Week

People call it Valentines day, I call it Tuesday.

My feb 14th this year wasn’t so grand unlike last year. I spent the day at school but I left early with my friends. We planned to go on a picnic but it rained so we just played video games then watched a movie at home.

Around 2pm, we received a text from my cousin saying our grandmother had stroke and was rushed to the hospital. Meh.

4pm, we hit the road and visited our “tree”. Well, there’s this secret place we go every month, it has a small pond, and a tree where we engrave our names. Hehe, silly, right. Spent 2 hours there just dancing around, laughing, eating.

6pm, we went home. 

Feb 15th. Spent the whole day at school. Around 8pm, I told dad I want to go to the hospital to visit my grandmother, told him I’m just gonna drive myself there but he insisted to just fetch me. On the way to the hospital, I witnessed a motorcycle accident, I don’t know what exactly happened but I saw how the passenger’s legs got twisted. Meh, that was really really awful. Anyway, it felt that the accident should have happened to me, thank God my father fetched me. 

So okay, around 9pm, I arrived at the hospital.

The doctor said granny needs an operation due to the hemorrhage, but he told my aunts that it may not work because grandmother is too weak for it. 

Everybody was crying and I couldn’t bear see them so I stayed outside the room.

11pm, I left the hospital.

1am, I received a text msg from my father saying my grandmother passed away. Well, the fact that she’s gone isn’t sinking on me yet, it felt so unimaginable. 

Feb 16th night, me and my brother went to the wake. I was still holding my tears. 

Feb 17th, my sister went home from Lucena. 5-7pm we were at the wake.

Feb 18th, I spent the day with my sister and my best friend. We haven’t seen each other for a month so we went out and watched the movie “The Black Woman”. The movie isn’t so bad, too much creepiness.  After the movie, we had dinner at Gerry’s Grill. We had beer and we smoked, something we don’t usually do together. lol. I had 4 bottles of beer and felt a little tipsy. Awesome night, it was. 

7pm, we went to our grandmother’s wake.

Feb 19th, yesterday, was her burial. RIP, granny. I love you!
