11h 50am This strange fat man who had caused us so much trouble the last time time went away as he came without actually provoking us. Following this unexpected meeting, we headed for the cemetery. We stand behind the people present but I had forgotten how a funeral was depressing. Everyone recite his little comment to describe my grandmother and it gives the impression that a competition to the one who will to do to cry the most was organized. Apart from my sister, me and the pastor's daughter who is a former classmate, no other teenage girl is present. This figure of three may seem ridiculous, but it is higher than the 2 represented by middle-aged people who have come here. Perhaps it is better if some sincere people who greet you the day of your last journey than a bunch of curious? That's what I say to myself as I listen to her old neighbor finish what could be described as exaggerated praise. I loved my grandmother but she was neither Rosa Parks nor a god and had lived her life simply without accomplishing what this lady suggests.
"Did you come to bury your grandmother?"
Another old lady came to stand between Emie and me to ask us this question. "You know us."
Outch, she slapped my hand that old wrinkled woman. "Of course I know you, the big idiot. In December 2012 I was part of those who had put all their heart and had spent more four days building the giant nativity scene in the main square of the city. Do you remember? It is this sublime nativity scene to which you had set fire in the middle of the night by shouting obnoxious blasphemies. Like all the seniors who live in this neighborhood, I could not ignore who you are anyway. You often had fun when you were younger writing with paint about our cars, words as bad and stupid as you are. On mine you wrote (died old goat) all because I had scolded you because you had crossed in front of a motorbike. Lisa, a little plague all of whose neighbors were suspicious. An angel face but a character as rotten as an old cheese forgotten in the fridge. It's not all that bad, but not going to see Madam Martin, she's still mad at you for causing the death of her cat by making her drink alcohol."
The muscles in my mouth contract but I have to resist. I remember this experience with this cat. We did not want to kill him at all and we were only seven or eight years old. I do not know if he was trying to catch his tail but whichis certain, it is that he was going around in circles. It's too late. Pfff hahaha. "Do not laugh, Lisa silly."
Shit, I think it's nervous. I have to get away a little. Why does the old woman follow me? "Old woman, may I ask you a question? Uch."
"I'm Susan, not old woman, and you just asked your question."
What an old cow. "Susan, can I ask you several questions?"
"Ask your questions, kid."
She is not very friendly this old woman but if she has the answer to this question then I think it is not the most important. "Susan, do you know what I'm doing right now?"
"I'm old but I still have ears that work very well. What is your point? Do you want to boast brat?"
It's not old goat that I should have written but old crap. "When I lived here, the police hated me as a part of the neighborhood so why was the press not informed about my background? I asked myself this question for a long time. I got ready for the day when all this shit package would burst but it does not come, why?"
"Because like every city this one too to its pride and you are somewhere part of this pride now. Many people quickly forget the negative things for the benefit of what can bring them a little joy. As for why nobody talks about your origins, I imagine that like me, if they talked about it, they should also admit that they did not do anything for you when you needed it. I do not know and I do not care. What I know is that you owe me $ 800. That's what the mechanic had asked me for to remove your painting."
She was following me to get her money back this old cow? "After the ceremony, old woman, I'm going back near my sister for the moment."
00h20pm
Old man A "It was a very nice funeral. I did well to get up early and come."
Old woman B "Yes I'm sure she was happy when she hears your speech."
Old woman C "I asked to the undertaker's director if her hamster could accompany her on his last trip but he refused."
Old woman D "It's not as if the perishable goods were annoying in there. So what are you doing of hamster. "
Old woman C "I entrusted it to the pharmaceutical laboratory, they are constantly looking for them. They must love rodents a lot. "
Old man B "Sam, Ben, I've planned a barbecue for the occasion, are you going in my home?"
Old man A "I'm never against a barbecue after a funeral succeeds."
Old man C "As long as there is beer, there is hope."
Old Woman C "It's a good thing funerals, they occupies our mornings and it we change of television."
Old woman B "I do not agree with you. For each burial, we lose a card player and it starts to become problematic. "
Old woman A "That's right."
Grandma, if you hear them from up there, ignores their stupid conversation. "Emie, we're going back to New York." One more free day and I'm getting ready for Fashion Week. I will not have much free time for a while. Before that, I will visit Selena because this stay here was quite revealing and I'll see how it all evolves. I do not worry too much about it. I have lived until now, ignoring who she was so if our conversation was to take an unexpected turn, I can continue my journey alone as before.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
