As she slowly drifted away from us, I handed her a chrysanthemum, her favorite flower. She felt it in her hands and smiled. And then it was over. I was crying, but that smile on her face was all I needed to get through it.
About the author
Vertically Challenged
The Shortness of Awesomness
Yay! I’m in the LoA! I am the Shortness of Awesomeness.
I’m a vertically challenged girl trying to live in a world made for the un-vertically challenged. My favorites are purple, cats, penguins, and the internet. Please do not stalk me. Stalkers will be the victim of my unnaturally large purse. Fear it.
I pledge to stand up to all of the LoA’s standards. And I shall do so with a block of Swiss Cheese.
