Nana thinks the magazine is the devil.

Nana thinks the magazine is the devil.

 

“THE PEOPLE WHO DREW THE BLESSED ****** MOTHER OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST IN A BIKINI ARE GOING TO HELL.”

 

Whatever you say, Nana.

 

When we left my Nana made us tacos and tamales. She gathered all the food in the house to send us off and took all the cash she had and stuffed it in my pocket. She purged the cupboard of all the bananas, plums, nectarines, and apricots and placed them in a bag with two bottled waters a coke, a diet coke and sprite.

 

She told me that she loved me and that she hated to see me go. That, “I had just gotten there” and that she would “miss me so much.”

 

Before we left she sent me with a card that was “very important”. It was a picture and a coin embossed with my guardian angel that she bought at the church gift shop.

 

My nana loves me more than anything else in the world.

 

My nana still calls you my friend.
