NORAS POV
"Grandma tell me what happened!" I scream in tears on the floor
"Baby, grandpa was at work and he had a heart attack and sadly the doctors couldn't save him." Grandma says while a few more tears go down her face
"No. No no no. This can't be true" I say
"I'm so sorry no no." She says while coming over to me.
"I think I need to be alone for a little nonna." I say while walking up to my room
I run to my closet and grab my rosary beads and go and sit on my bead and hold them in my hands and begin to pray.
"God..why do you keep taking everyone out of my life and making my life worse, please god stop taking people that I love out of my life." I say while wiping tears off my face
I put the rosary beads back in my closet and barely make it to my bad before I fall on the floor and erupt in tears and just lay their on the floor crying my eyes out.
I hear a knock at the door and then I hear some voices.
"Nora?" I hear a man say while knocking on my door
I look up and see Jack.
He sees my mascara all messed up and all the tears on my face and rushes Over to me.
"Baby what happened?!" He says while picking me up and sitting me on his lap
"My grandpa passed away." I say
"Baby I'm so sorry He was like a grandfather to me." He says and I see him holding back tears.
It's true. My grandpa was like a second grandparent to Jack. Whenever we were little jack would always come over and help him bake, and my grandfather loved having a boy around the house since my dad passed away.
"Why does everyone keep leaving in my life." I say while looking up at jack
"I don't know baby." He says while rubbing the tears off my face and caressing my cheeks
"Is their anything I can get you baby?" He asks
"I want sleep." I say
"Ok baby." He says
He picks me up and lays me on the bed, and he lays next to me. I lay my head in his chest and he wraps his arms around me, and kisses me on the head.
"Sleep tight baby." He whispers in my ear
"I love u so much." I say
"I love u more." He says
..
"No no?" Grandma says waking me up
I look at the door and see her standing there
"Yes nonna." I say
"I'm gonna go to church for a while and then visit my sisters, I left money for the day , I'll be back tomorrow ." She says
I can see the sorrow in her eyes. I can see the eye bags. I can see that grandma didn't sleep at all last night. I can see how much she misses grandpa. I can see how much she wants to erupt in tears but she has to stay strong to keep an example for me. It's so sad, how all she has is me now.
A couple minutes later jack wakes up as well and he sits up and kisses me.
"How you doing babe." He says
"We slept all day and night." I say
"But I'm going horrible. I miss him so much and it gets me worrying that maybe my grandma is gonna be taken from me too soon. My grandparents our my best friends their practically my parents, I love them with everything in my heart. " I say
"Baby I bet your grandpa and mom and dad and sister are watching over you right now saying the same things about you. About how much they miss you and would love to see you. But they got the same pain you have, when their life was taken, they got taken from you and it's impossible for anyone to live with out you." He says and I tear up
"I love you." I say
"I love you too." He says before kissing me and I lay back in jacks arms.
