The 다음 morning.
Zoey was talking with the mortician, while Alexia was watching cartoons. At least Zoey was under the impression Alexia was watching cartoons. Until her little girl let out a shriek.
“Mommy!”
Zoey, scared something had happened to Alexia, jumped up and ran into the sitting room. Alexia was staring at the screen.
“Lex, what’s going on? 당신 almost gave mommy a 심장 attack” Zoey said and swallowed a few times to calm down.
“Mommy, come look” Alexia said breathless. “Uncle Emmanuel is on TV”
Zoey rushed to the 텔레비전 and increased the volume.
“Last night the police arrested a man named Castiel for the abuse of a four 년 old girl” the newsreader said.
“Alexia, go play outside” Zoey said trembling.
“Why do they call him Castiel, mommy? His name’s Emmanuel” Alexia said confused.
“Now!” Zoey yelled and Alexia ran outside.

I Remember…
I remember the day,
That he passed away,
Just like it was,
Yesterday.
I remember the night,
Full of delight,
When 당신 two made,
Amends.
I remember that day,
When 당신 went to play,
Zelda,
On my N64.
But I remember tomorrow,
The 일 of sorrow,
When I found out what happened,
To him.
And I’ll never forget,
The 일 당신 left,
This Earth to go play in the sky.
I remember the day,
That 당신 passed away,
Just like it was,
Today.
