Questions


"What time did she die?"
We aren't sure, sometime in the past few hours
She didn’t have an off and on button

"Did anything happen? Did she look at anybody, see anyone?”
No, her eyes were closed
She had them open all her years, seen enough of life already


“Why didn’t you call us sooner?”
No time to consult the handbook
We were a little tied up


“So that was it? No last words? Nothing?”
No, she hadn't spoken for days
She was old, she was tired, she had shared enough wisdom during her 95 years

“So, its official, the death certificate is signed?
Yes, they took her away
She won’t be coming back
