best Manson,82, slowly opened his eyes and turned to face the clock on the bedside table.it was 8:33 a.m. He sighed. The time was insignificant. he had nothing to do all day. he had nothing to do any day. he lay on the bed. listening to the cars on the highway and shouts of the children running to school.
after a while, Best carefully got out of bed and asked himself the same question as he did every morning: Would he fall today? If so, would he be near a telephone? What if no one came? How long would he wait? Would he die? He looked out of the window into the street below."And who would care? he muttered.
After Bert's wife died a year ago, his son and daughter said they would visit once a week. but the last time was months ago. on the phone they always had a reason: too busy at work; the children are sick; bad weather; no time. nobody seemed to have any time ... apart from Bert. He missed his granddaughters. He loved it when Mandy and Ruth came to visit. they brought him candy, and hope.
Painfully, he walked to a chair near the bedroom door. he rested for a moment before continuing in small steps to the bathroom.
