Setting: A small little funeral home where all of the family funerals are held. A place that that seems a little too familiar. A place where immediate sadness is felt when as a person walks in. The room is cold no matter what time of year. The carpet is a brown color that looks as if the neutral color is supposed to bring some kind of comfort it is paired with wallpaper that looks like it has been there ever since the building was built.

I was in the bathroom putting on my makeup the morning before my grandpa’s funeral. My eyes were puffy. I had to keep reapplying my foundation, eyeliner, and mascara since I was tearing up with every thought. All I could see in the mirror was how sad I looked, and all the painful memories the last few weeks of watching him die. I didn’t feel good at all.
