Mom arranged the funeral. All of Ms. Stanley's family and friends came. Rylee brought tissues for those who end up in tears. I cried the most. Jem, upon seeing me, held me closer. I sobbed on her shoulder.
Ms. Stanley was buried under a sycamore tree, just like the one she painted. Her tombstone reads:
Norma Stanley
Dear Friend & Beloved Mother, Sister, and Aunt
1941-2009
Everyone placed bouquets of flowers. I left a white rose and a small turtledove. It was her favorite bird.
Later that day, I went straight to my room.
"Don't you want anything to eat," Jem asked.
"No thanks." I locked the door. I was too miserable to eat.

Note: Norma Lloyd was my late grandma. Mr. Stanley was her late friend and neighbor.

Grinning Enigma
Freddy is a very bad boy. Meets some people that know what he did. He tries to escape punishment, makes it [Redacted]. Freddy might be a mass-murdering troll, but he isn’t a bad person, right? Right? Disclaimer: This is not an instruction manual. If you want to be a horrible human being, go figure it out yourself. Autopsy: Writing this story gave me some degree of insight into how much I've managed to fuck up my own personality by suppressing basic needs. Now I hate myself even more. It started as a story where the MC was supposed to be a blend of the NZ-land shooter and other cancerous personalities. That way I wouldn't feel bad about torturing him. Instead I ended up witnessing all the worst aspects of my own personality, or lack thereof. I'm a horrid person, I can't even bring myself to do what's the only right thing at this point.

Try Again
