Silence.
I defrost a chop for his tea.
He sits drinking tea with earphones in- he leaves for work.
Silence.
I defrost a pie for his tea.
I lay in a hospital bed, machines bleep and a hand I know grips mine. 'Please dont leave me nan, I need you', he says.
He sits drinking tea - pulls out his earphones -
'Bye nan I love you', he says, smiling.
Silence.
I defrost a piece of chicken for his tea.
