My aunt died last night.
A part of me is Trinidadian.
My aunt died last night.
I am half Trinidadian.
Her name was Aunty Rita.
It was a common,
family joke
to yell her name.
Like this,
RITAAAAAAAAAA.
And now I don't think I'll ever hear that again.
My mom is going to Trinidad for a week.
And I wish I could go too.
Is it ironic that I dreamt of Trinidad the night before.
Is it ironic that I dreamt that a dog died or almost died and I cared for it.
My aunt died last night.
Aunty Rita.
