A Death

 

My family called me this morning and I ignored the call. They didn’t leave a message, which was odd.

So at lunchtime I called and my step mother informed me that my Aunt Denise passed away last night. 

She was my father’s youngest sister and a twin to one of my uncles.

Nobody knows what happened to her, they weren’t even going to tell my dad at first, but he found out anyway.

She was my favorite aunt on my dad’s side. 

I haven’t seen her in years because of some stupid family feud over how my grandmother would be taken care of (she’s still alive, with alzheimers, in a home)…

and… my heart just crumbled in my chest.

and I went home early because I was a mess.

and I keep finding myself crying.

She’s the aunt that everyone said I looked like. She was always so vibrant and opinonated and wonderful.

And now she’s gone and I can’t even remember the last time I saw her.

And… I just feel sorta lost about everything.

Just lost.

And they always say this crap comes in threes… and I’m terrified of 2 and 3 right now.

I don’t know when they’ll do a service, and even though I don’t have anything to wear, I will be there.
