Full Circle, by Wilson Ajima
The lady who died was only two days away from being a Mrs. She was thirty two years old at the time of her passing. All those people who saw her beautiful face on that obituary poster fell in love with her instantly and they cried and cursed death for taking her too early. But two very old mourners kinda loved the fact that she had died so young.
"Too many of us go full circle these days, it's almost so refreshing to have someone this young fade out.”
“Death still knows how to break the rules."
循环
逝者距离成为夫人仅仅只有两天。她在离世时年仅三十二岁。所有看到她在讣告海报上美丽面庞的人都立刻爱上了她,他们哭泣着咒骂死神夺走了她的生命。但有两位年迈的悼者却有点喜欢她年轻轻地离去的事实。
"如今我们中有太多人走完了这一生,看到这么年轻的人渐渐离去,几乎是一种别样的感受。
“死神依然知道如何打破规则。”
