Love and Money

Marianne's Point of View

I was sitting at the kitchen table staring out the window thinking. Thinking of where the money could be. My daughter’s voice interrupted my thoughts. “Do you think grandma was just kidding about that money?” I heard. I tried ignoring her, but her brown eyes drilled into me. “What do you mean?” I asked quickly and quite rudely but she left me to myself.

I walked into my room and grabbed the note that I discovered the day after my mother-in-law’s death. “love is more importAnt than monKey, oops I mean moNey. Be at peace my child.” As I reread this, I thought about how the family’s love died when she died.
