Mr. Williams
Mr. Williams
By Cody May
Mr. Williams was dressed and ready for his Granddaughter’s 2nd birthday party this afternoon on the 12th of November, 2019. It was a nice arcade buried in this small town of Bedrock, Virginia where his daughter decided to have it. Mr. Williams liked it there, you couldn’t get bored in such a vigorous place, plus they served some damn good pizza. He finished dressing and then picked up the photo of his dear wife, Loretta, which sat on his bed-frame. She had passed away just over seven months ago, and life without her had taken its toll on old Mr. Williams, who had recently turned seventy-two. They had been married for thirty-nine years, and he missed her more and more as each day had passed. He lay by her side in the hospital, and they talked about the days of old; when they first met, their first date, meeting the parents, as her pancreatic cancer slowly took her away from him, day-by-day.
