He died Saturday, my neighbor, who lived across the street. For me it was just a neighbor. I used to see him walking along the sidewalk. From time to time drunk, but always orderly. Holiday trousers and ironed shirts. To me he was just a man running along the sidewalk. My brothers, he was the father. My mom ex-husband. And on Saturday night, for the first hour, eight minutes, he died. Seven in the morning the phone rang mother and brother announced that it has become the unofficial widow. I can only say that a strange feeling. I can not describe what took place in my mind. Such a feeling has never felt. Huge family togetherness, but I'm an alien. And it just felt like I did. My mother helped the brothers to put black dots on the i. He directs towards funeral purpose and reminded of what they might be forgotten. Affairs million. From the refrigerator and Chanter to grave-diggers and funeral dinner. Family tragedy. But I like the glass partitions. Two days patiently sat on the coffin, as if it lie my own father. Mom said that if not staying day of the funeral, the brothers will be very upset. And I do not know how many of them unconscious was quiet when I was watching along with them as the land is allowed casket. I hope that at least a little bit helped. When I was born, Sister from another father, my mother were brothers, all in the name of written documents. And I was christened neighbor, brother father's surname. While I was sitting in the coffin, my name seems to have been written on my forehead enormous letters, and the other around her flashing very annoying light. For the deceased was not written in what proportions, and what will appoint his legacy. Immature bigot said that here, sitting in hay, it is likely that the asset will.

I cried. I cried when fifteen minutes before closing the coffin, my brothers, until now, never shown tears, weeping. If this would have happened, and that I would be born from the same juice, and I'd be crying. And to reach me to give sympathy. But then ... Then the only white magpie is my mother, and now we are together. Both are to blame. Mom, that was not able to live with an alcoholic, and I, as brothers wearing his father's name.

Yes, even as tired. The band lay on the inscription ,, sad sons Linas. I sit, I watch, well nice thinking. What here to add. My brother bent down to the ear whispers. Sis ,, as you think it should reach my father? ". To sympathize said that ,, hopefully to paradise. And I only later realized that it was a hint of dead man shoes. The large, square, up to your calves, and the pad is not smooth, as usual the dead. These lozenges can be named Spike. To forbid if the slide next to die, for what should Knocked. The mother decided that the funeral home has a deal with the current fashion twentieth sales. One that is left on in 1985 have been fashionable, good quality shoes. Their little, what fifteen pairs.
