Fabulous, as always! Fiction?
You got the teenage mind on this one, with her worries about what she should do. The kinds of thoughts one has looking at a corpse.
Love the artwork. Fits the story really well. You're so talented!

What she said - how well you capture the teen angst, and the strange, small details one might fixate on, because the big picture is too hard to handle. This teenager takes it all in, and we feel her pain, yet you capture a certain detachment (survival mode) that seems to be part of the resilience of the young.
What a brave topic - the dead body in the casket, the mourners gathered around. I don't know that I could "go there."
I hope it's pure fiction....
Thank you, @carolkean. ❤️ The teenage character truly came through very powerfully when I wrote this.
It was partly fiction, partly inspired by the passing of my own grandmother. ❤️ Thank you, @owasco!
