We had a private funeral for my mom.
Only the kids and I, along with Rose and her mom attended. It had been a hard pill to swallow for the most part but there was a generally good atmosphere between everyone.
After the funeral we all went out for milkshakes and enjoyed the rest of the afternoon at the park.
Since my dad was still in prison for the next few weeks, I was responsible for the kids.
Rose’s mom offered to take them in until we finished the academic year.
This was relieving and also meant I could focus on finishing the year the same way I intended on doing so at the start. To be completely honest I didn’t exactly feel capable of that responsibility anyways.
Rose and I returned to her apartment after a long drive back to campus. We found Danilo and Melinda passed out on the couch together.
She looked at me and giggled.
“They look so peaceful. You know, its probably going to be a while before they wake up. Why don’t we go do our own thing in the room?”, she suggested.
“I was planning on taking a nap but that can come afterwards I guess.”
