I have a headache

Today I went back to church, for the first time in a long time. It was weird, seeing how everyone has changed and how people still remember me. Then, I had lunch with my parents and my Guo Mah. She seemed much better than 2 weeks ago when I saw her at the funeral. After that we went to see my Uncle Joey to collect documents, and he started talking about how last night he dreamt of Aunty Janet and he got to hug her, and how lonely he felt now and how he missed her. He kept asking, "What now?" and talked about how every night they used to watch TV for hours, then sleep at 11pm.

I thought of John McGahern's The Barracks.
