It is my last week here at my internship, but what happened today was completely out of the ordinary. Actually, now that I think about it, that day was, for the most part, ordinary. I mean I did my daily copying and filing. Anyway, the day was very ordinary up until that point. As the day was nearing its close for me, I saw this young adolecent walking the halls with a strange stride. I then saw his facial expression, he was clearly upset or angry at somthing. I thought nothing of this at first, but then I overheard from the nurses nearby about someone dying. Suddenly, I hear this scream, but this scream was no ordinay scream. This scream sounded like the most distressed scream, mixed with anger and sadness. He was also beginning to make a scene, everyone was looking. I tried connecting the dots between his scream and the news about death. It turns out I was right. I later found out that his mother died, by what is still a mystery to me, but I know this: she had high blood pressure and diabetes. I also saw the dead body. Her eye was half closed and she seemed to be staring at me, I thought she was sleeping. I was about to say hello. She was dead, and this sight of death reminded me that humans are capable of many things, but one thing is certain. Death. Time is precious, though would any of it matter in the end? Enjoy the day.
