Rinnnnnng,was all I remember that day. Saying good-byes at school and walking to my friend Drake's house,playing video games.
Ahhhhh, just waking up from bed from a long day before. I got ready for summer school that morning with a tingling feeling like something wrong was going to happen. But I thought to myself nothing was going to happen.
As I got to school, all my thought sank away as we were filled with conversations with laughter and happiness. Rinnnng,the bell rung signaling that school started. "What another wonderful day at P.E." I thought to myself. The period was filled with laughter and excitement as we played pickel-ball. After that everything felt like went downhill. The sky was turned pitch-black like it was going to pour.
"Ayee Drake,where you like meet?" as I talked to him to take me home. As I got into the car, the same feeling ran through as something bad had just happened,but I tried getting over it but I couldn't. When we went to Drake's house, my dad was waiting for me in his car. I tried calling my mom, but she wouldn't answer and from there I knew something was wrong!
The path he was taking me was so familiar. A long ride into the dark,thunderous sky on the Pali to my Grandma's house. "Your mom told me to pick you up!" my dad said. But I just sat in the car silenced, and stunned. Tears started to roll down my face aleardy like a drizzle.
As soon as we got to my Grandma's house, things just became a daze as I ran into the house like a freight train, nothing stopping me. I gave my Grandpa a big hug as if he was still alive. But he just lay there helplessly,and motionless. My mom had to pull me aside after a good 3 minutes I was hugging my Grandpa. First she gave me a big hug,then she said to me "It's alright, now he's not suffering."Yeah your right" as I said weeping in tears.
I should've known that something like this was going to happen. I should've known when I got those weird feelings in the morning and after school. I should've known when my dad rushed me down the Pali.
But even though my Garndpa isn't with us, I learned alot of things from it. First that even though he had cancer and was getting worse, he still lived his life as if there was no tomorrow. Another thing was that even though people may doubt you,like people doubted on how much time he had, he proved them wrong by fighting to make wonderful things happen. And lastly if you have people that care about you, use them wisely because you never know what could happen.
