Male Female
So actually, I lost my aunt three weeks ago. She died in the morning. I was at my grandpa's house because I was kind of sleeping there since my mother and father were out of town. I was alone in this house, and that's why I was sleeping at my grandpa's house. I woke up in the morning to go to school, and I didn't see my grandmother there, which was unusual because my grandma is always there in the morning, waiting for me or using her phone or making breakfast. I thought there was something wrong, but I didn't focus on that. Maybe she went back to sleep or something. I waited for my uncle to come and get me, but he didn't come, so I called him. I asked, 'Where are you, and where is my grandma?' He said, 'We're not going to school today.' I asked, 'Where are you?' He replied, 'I'm at your auntie's house with grandma.' Then Leo said, 'My aunt is okay.' He called me, and I heard everyone screaming. There was a lot of noise. I heard my cousin talking to her mom, and her mom was saying, 'My mom is not responding.' My uncle was crying. It was just a bit chaotic. I didn't actually receive the news well. I don't know, maybe I just couldn't imagine this was going to happen because the night before, she was with us. But I was so sad.
