You must have been so heavy. <br /><br />Once, when I heard from Mom that Grandpa had <br />been hospitalized, I was surprised, <br />but I brushed it off, thinking it probably <br />wasn't that serious... <br /><br />But it turned out to be a really serious <br />illness... When I heard he couldn't be saved, <br />I couldn't even cry. I just stood there, <br />stunned and frozen. <br /><br />While Grandpa was hospitalized, I visited him <br />almost every day. <br /><br />Each time I went, he looked thinner, his <br />complexion worse, and his once thick hair had <br />fallen out from the side effects. <br /><br />One day, when I visited as usual, Grandpa <br />seemed even more listless than before. <br /><br />He told me, “Grandpa is going to die soon.” <br /><br />I cried and yelled, “Why would you say that?!” <br /><br /><br />Realizing I'd overreacted, I apologized, saying <br />“I'm sorry.” <br />Then Grandpa said, <br />“I'm not! You're so full of life. You gave me <br />strength.” <br /><br />The next day, Grandpa passed away and went to <br />heaven. <br /><br />That day at school, my homeroom teacher told me, <br />“I heard your grandpa passed away.” <br /><br />I burst into tears right there in front of <br />everyone. <br /><br />When I got to the hospital, everyone had already <br />gathered and was crying. <br /><br />Seeing how much everyone loved Grandpa made me <br />feel warm inside. <br /><br />Grandpa... Are you happy in heaven? <br /><br />Everyone here is doing well. <br /><br />I'll come visit your house again soon. <br /><br />Wait for me, okay?
