January 4th

Today, last year, my Great Grandpa from my Dad Luis’ side of the family passed away.

I cried.

I guess you could say we were close.
He always asked for me, wished for my blessing, and sent his greetings, but all relatives do that, huh?
I don’t know, I mean, I was able to keep conversations with him and that’s rare for relatives and I. We would speak on the phone when he would go back to Guatemala. I hate talking on the phone to relatives in other states/countries.

The sadder thing is, I found out through my Aunt’s Facebook status.
Not only did no one call me about it, but I found out on Facebook?!
This got me so mad.
I cried angry tears. I cried sad tears.

My mom, Dad Javier, and Mami were sympathetic. Thank you. You held me while I cried. No one called to see how I felt from my Luis’ side. Well, as you may not know, I have feelings, too. I was related to him. I probably spent more time with him than Sammy did, and I think we are his only Granddaughters.
What’s even worse about you guys is that you were all fighting your little fights like you always do. You guys couldn’t stop fighting for 5 seconds to ALL spend time with your loved one; how sad.

I hope Heaven is as good as you talked it to be. ♥
