it was Sunday when Danny (the father of Nathan and Alice) came in a room to check on his kids and find Alice laying down on floor crying silently while holding her grandma's picture,her dad came closer and sit besides her and pulled her to his chest to comfort her. she kept on crying and her dad keeps her accompany while Alice was crying she looked her dad in face and starts to talk nonstop"dad are we bad people?? do we really deserve this? are we going to keep on loosing our beloved? dad answer me ,was grandma really deserve to die and leave us alone like this,but dad what if she is not dead? dad will she meet mum?? dad I miss them both". she kept on talking and her dad got speechless but he kept on holding her .
Alice's mum died when she was 8 years from then her grand mother become their second mother that's why her grandma's death really got a big bad influence on her. it was one day when Nathan and Alice were coming back from school and their mother was there to pick them up while they were heading back home Alice wanted a pencil which looks like her classmate's and she kept on insisting to get it too and her mother promised her to buy it,when they got to the shop she stoped by and she entered into shop ,Alice and Nathan were playing outside and when their mother gets out from shop she found them in road and she ran to take them out of road,while she was picking them up from the road she threw the pencils and she noticed after, and goes back to pick them up without checking if there any car is coming,when she picked the pencils it was to late for her life ,she got into accident and died in front of her kids. from that day their grandmother replaced their mother, live with them and helped them to fill the gap of their mother.
meanwhile in other room Nathan is sitting on bed holding his granny's pic and his mother's,he was crying but silent too and he starts to talk to the pictures " Grandma why are you leaving us like this?are you even happy on your way to heaven? I have a billion of words to tell you but you no longer hear ,you listened about everything I used to tell you,I don't know how we will make in life without you,is God fair? It will always hard to except your absence. a he kept on crying and laying on bed.
as time goes by they Nathan and Alice fell sleep and their dad leave them alone and goes into his room,calls his little brother to be in charge of everything so he can take rest too ,they slept a little while and when they woke up they found their uncle and another woman in kitchen preparing food for them.
when they got into kitchen they quickly ran to their uncle to say hi and to that woman too,they look like they are not surprised fk thay woman at their place ,their uncle looks really happy to see them smiling again despite all the pain they were holding,when they were there talking their dad came along too and that woman suddenly came to him and hugged him,he looked shy and all of three of them glanced at him and to each other and smile,they took everything they wanted in kitchen and leave them alone in kitchen,they didn't want to get involved in whatever was going on.
Danny and that woman stayed in kitchen and when everyone was out,Danny pulled that woman little closer and lie on her shoulder while he was hugging her more tighter and he starts to say" I really don't know how I will make it in life without their grandmother,she was mother to all of us and I don't know if I can be enough to them anymore" that woman pulled chair and Danny sat and woman sat on table,puts his head on her lap while he was crying she was stroking her hands on his hair and calming him down,when he cooled down he stood up and looks in her eyes and said "thank you for being here with me,I really appreciate". and she replied"it's nothing". and he offered to have lunch together with his family.
meanwhile at my school nothing was really interested I was warried about Nathan and Alice same time bored and because of my boredom I decided to start working out everyday after classes so I can keep my mind and body in good shape.
when Nathan's family was having lunch their uncle asked about funeral and how schedule will be, that woman quickly answered everything and give everyone the answers they were looking for and everyone on table kept quite for while because she is quite impressive about everything, after her words Nathan and Alice looked at each other and by joking they said that"dad you should marry her,she is impressive" that woman gladly said "thank you".
after days goes by the funeral day comes ,friends,family were there to support the family in hardship moments, they all did say good bye to the granny and when it was Alice and Nathan's turn it was totally different than others,Alice came to closer to her granny 's body and starts to cry louder than before and she was talking while crying"Grama why do you live us like this? was it really worth it to die,you have been always be there for us,in hardship times and joyfully moments but now it all memories,granny you will forever live in my heart,please say hi to mum and tell her that we become good students so far,I love you grama,be an angel and visit me every night oky"?. her dad was besides her and holding her but surprisingly after her speech,she goes to that woman and hugs her tight and the dad stays with Nathan who was speechless and didn't say anything until his granny was burried.
after time goes by they started to go back in mood and starts to talk about other staff as they used to be and their dad looks at them and asks" Guys who was those people that I found you with when I came to pick up in school"? they all looked shy and said"is our friends" their uncle who loves to tease everyone turns the mood on and starts to tease them"ohh I can see love in your eyes, don't lie to your uncle, Nathan who is that lucky woman? ,You Alice who is that Jesus "?? Alice throw pillow to him as said"he is jerk" and uncle said"oky tell us more", and Danny turns to them and said "yeah we want to hear the story bring it on". Alice calms down and starts to tell them the story" oky dad I know you guys can't keep quite unless I talk, before I talk I want Jane here too". (that woman's name is Jane and she is also the secretary of Danny at the office ). Jane was in kinda far from them didn't want to get involved in family issues and she came closer to them and grab a sit and Alice starts to talk"oky that jerk's name is tonny he was best friend of Natty and... before she finish the sentence they all asked at the same time "who is Natty" Nathan looked shy and want to skip conversation "alright I am done". when he wanted to escape everyone pulled him to get back there so he can give a fully story. he came back and starts to tell them everything but he didn't say anything about kiss to avoid the teases from his uncle they all Loughed and teases a little bit and their uncle uncle suddenly asks"how about that clingy Jenifer? is she still alive? before Nathan reply Alice replied instead"she is my target when I get back to school". they all Loughed and had a good conversations,and when night cames everyone starts to go to their room and Danny offered a ride to Jane.
