Funeral
For the first time in a very long time, Ray felt guilty and ashamed of his own behavior. Now, his grandma was gone, and he hadn’t been fair to her. He had taken care of her, sure; but he did so with an ulterior motive.
A few days later, Ray went to Sally’s funeral, which Alice didn’t, and all her friends introduced themselves and praised him for taking care of her in her last days. Still, he felt dirty. He felt like he didn’t deserve all the praise.
