image1.jpgThis book is in
memory of my nanny whom I miss dearly every day. Just like to Tori my nanny was not just my grandmother, she was my best friend. To many people she was not just a mother, grandmother, sister, aunt or cousin she was a person that you could talk to at any time about anything. She would have coffee on in minutes and food at the table if you wanted or needed it. She was always in a good mood and ready to give or receive a good laugh.
As Always Nanny,
I love you up to the moon.
Chapter 1
As I hit the county line and was less than a mile away from my mom’s I felt an excruciating pain in my chest and I knew she was gone. When I reached the house, mom was waiting outside for me in the driveway.
Tori don’t go in there, she’s gone baby. Just remember her the way she was before she got sick honey.
My mom said.
I stood in my mom’s driveway sobbing because my best friend, my grandmother, my nanny was gone. She was no longer suffering, but I was angry and mad. The COPD had taken away the most important person in my life. I wanted to scream and kick like a kid throwing a tantrum, but I knew it wouldn’t bring her back so I just fell to the ground quietly sobbing. How was I going to keep my promise to take care of myself? How was I going to live my life if the person that was always there when I needed her was gone?
As I watched the hearse take her away, I could feel myself slipping into a dark place that I had no idea how to get out of. If only I had gotten the chance to say goodbye, but I didn’t, instead I got here too late. And now she was gone forever and there was nothing I could do about it.
The next couple of days were some of the hardest days that I had ever had to deal with. People came to pay their respects and honestly, it made me sick because hardly any of them came around when she was alive. What should have been a time that brought everyone together made me want to distance myself from everyone and everything.
Three Weeks Later
It had been three weeks since my nanny passed away and I hadn’t offered to change clothes, go to work, shower, nothing. I was having a hard time grieving due to anger and the fact that I felt completely alone. I had no idea what to do about it. I distanced myself from my mom and the rest of my so-called family was nowhere around. I was a complete mess. I was about to crawl back into bed when I heard a knock on my door. I opened the door to find my boss standing on my porch and he didn’t look happy.
It’s been three weeks Victoria and you haven’t returned any of my calls or came to work. I know you are going through a tough time right now, but we need you at work. The paper work isn’t going to take care of its self.
My Boss said.
Henry, sir I am going to be honest, I don’t care, and right now I just want to be alone.
I said before slamming the door in his face.
A few minutes later I received a text saying that I was fired and to come clean out my office immediately. I didn’t even let it phase me; instead I threw my phone on the couch and opened another carton of ice cream. A few hours later I got the urge that someone was watching me. I shrugged it off and realized that I smelled something that stunk. After realizing that the stink was myself, I decided that maybe it was time to get a shower.
I got up from the couch and headed upstairs to the bathroom. I stripped down and turned
